Abstract
Silicon nanoparticles have been synthesized by heating reactant gases with a 500 W CO2 laser, A technique based on scattering of He-Ne laser light by particulates in a reaction flame has been developed for prob ing the particle size evolution during the process, in order to scale down the particle diameter (under 10 nm). The optical and structural p roperties of laser-synthesized silicon nanopowders obtained in differe nt runs are reported. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
