Se. Kondakov et al., LOW-TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS OF METAL NANOMETER-SCALE PARTICLES IN TRIETHYLAMINE MEDIUM, Bulletin des Societes chimiques belges, 104(6), 1995, pp. 369-373
The process of metal cluster formation has been stud led in conditions
of metal vapor synthesis with tertiary amines. The samples have been
investigated by IR, UV-VIS, ESR and photon correlation spectroscopy. F
or the first time the nature of matrix complexes of the free metal and
triethylamine have been discussed in terms of donor-acceptor properti
es. It has been shown that the using of triethylamine as cryomatrix le
ads to the formation of stable ultrafine (Mg, Mn, Cu, Na, Sm, Pb) meta
l particles.
