Gold Coated Coverslips

High quality, borosilicate glass coverslips coated with 50nm of gold with a 5nm chromium adhesion layer between the coverslip surface and the gold coating. Can be used for a wide range of nanotechnology, biotechnology and AFM application. Both Cr and Au are evaporated on the glass coverslips using a vacuum evaporation system. The gold surface is not atomically flat, but has bumps in the nm range. The coverslips are sold in packs of 2 and are packed in an X0 Gel-Pak box. The gold coated coverslips are autoclavable.
