Production of Atomically Precise Clusters at Atmospheric Pressure
- 總結
- Researchers at Purdue University have developed a new method of producing metal clusters at atmospheric pressure. This method combines electrospray ionization of appropriately chosen salts with modest heat to achieve similar results at atmospheric pressure. This procedure eliminates the need for chemical reducing agents, i.e., lasers and vacuum chambers. The prepared surfaces can be catalytically active. This method requires only a mild condition for the production, and thus, it provides a continuous atmospheric pressure metal cluster ion source at a low cost.

- *Background
- Naked or unprotected noble metal clusters are traditionally produced in vacuum using laser ablation. Currently, there are two available methods; however, both involve the use of lasers and vacuum conditions.
