Thermodynamic limit for particle monodispersity: How narrow can a particle size distribution be?
A key problem in many emerging nanotechnologies is to create a narrow distribution of particles. Here, we prove the existence of a fundamental lower bound for the width of a particle size distribution (PSD) at equilibrium. This thermodynamic limit arises from the decrease of entropy for an ideal mon...
