Synthesis of Size-Classified Silicon Nanocrystals
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
We report the synthesis of size-classified silicon nanocrystals by applying differential mobility analysis to an originally polydisperse aerosol of ultrafine silicon crystallites. Using the described technique, the average nanocrystal size can be tuned by simply adjusting an electric field. Samples of uncoagulated silicon nanocrystals have been obtained and size control has been achieved within 15–20% in the 2–10 nm size regime.
