Size Analysis of Ion and Aerosol Nanoparticles in Nucleation and Growth

  • Conference paper
Nucleation and Atmospheric Aerosols

The size distribution of nanometer-sized aerosol and ion clusters is one of the most important parameters to measure when evaluating the “onset” of nucleation events in atmospheric environments. Nanoparticles have properties distinct from those of bulk materials and are attracting considerable attention. In this lecture we introduce various instruments for the size analysis of nanoparticles and ion clusters during nucleation and growth. These instruments are applied to measure dynamic changes that take place in the size distribution as the process of nucleation and growth advances. Several topics on the application of ion clusters will also be introduced.

Keywords Nanoparticle, ion cluster, plasma, ion-induced nucleation, differential mobility analyzer
