A SUB-CRITICAL NUCLEATION PROCESS FOR MAKING STABLE CLUSTERS OF ATOMS THAT ARE OF SUBCRITICAL SIZE, AND THE STRUCTURE, PROPERTIES AND APPLICATIONS OF MATERIALS THAT ARE MADE FROM THESE CLUSTERS

摘要

A method of making stable clusters of atoms that are of subcritical size, in which rapid expansion and rapid cooling of a vapor cloud takes place in which the vapor conditions or parameters are controlled so that multiple stable clusters, each with a size less than the critical size and formed from sub-critical nucleation, are condensed.
