Colloidal colours in glases –Optical properties of nanoparticles

History of nanotechnologyDie herrliche rote Farbe der kolloiden Goldlösung hat die Technik schon seit vielen Jahrhunderten im Goldrubinglas benutzt, das, wie Zsigmondy und Siedentopf mit Hilfe des Ultramikroskops bewiesen haben, feste Teilchen metallischen Goldes als färbende Substanz enthält (im Ultramikroskop erscheinen diese Goldteilchen als grünglänzende Scheibchen). Man stellt das echte Rubinglas her, indem man zur Glasmasse Chlorgold zufügt. Bei rascherem Abkühlen erhalt man ein farb-loses Glas; erhitzt man von neuem, bis das Glas erweicht, so läuft es plötzlich prachtvoll rubinrot an. Schlechtes Rubinglas dagegen wird beim Wiedererhitzen blau, violett und rosa; das Ultramikroskop zeigt hier viel hellere und viel weiter voneinander entfernte Teilchen, die im blauen Glase kupferrot, im violetten Glase gelb und dort, wo das Glas rosa ist, grün glänzen.Die Bedeutung der Kolloide für die TechnikK.
