Nanoparticles and Nanostructures: Aerosol Synthesis and Characterization

摘要: The remarkable properties of materials synthesized from nanometer-sized particles were discovered using that formed as aerosols. Although other routes for nanoparticle synthesis have evolved, aerosol remain a major method. original processes employed by Gleiter and coworkers entailed evaporation metal into low density gas where the vapors nanoparticles homogeneous nucleation. Those then collected thermophoresis subsequent consolidation. In study predated use vapor condensation step in production consolidated nanostructures, Granqvist Buhrman provided empirical observations role control variables. A number points confusion this method synthesis, notably distinctions between particle size, sizes microstructures attract attention scientists.
