trying to open a new tab in the browser

Well I decided that I want to give the user control over opening the window. I have added this button to my screen;

<div style=”float:left”>
    <button onclick="document.location='\'https://patents.google.com/\''">Open Google Patents</button>
</div>

But clicking this causes this path to open: http://localhost/index.php/Configure/'ht...oogle.com/'
when I really want just https://patents.google.com
