Sub-10 nm particle growth by vapor condensation – effects of vapor molecule size and particle thermal speed
The growth of freshly formed nanoparticles has been investigated. A new analytical expression based on a recently developed exact solution for the condensational growth rate has been derived. Based on the new growth rate, a new approximate but accurate analytical expression for growth time has be...
