At the Advanced Light Source, researchers tested the stability of gold nanocrystals under stress. Metallic nanocrystals are widely used in catalysis, electronics, photonics, and sensing applications and have properties that are highly dependent on their sizes, shapes, and structures. https://als.lbl.gov/stress-induced-structural-transformations-in-gold-nanocrystals/
