Abstract:Nanometer and subnanometer particles and films are becoming an essential and integral part of new technologies and inventions in different areas. Some of the most common areas include the microelectronic industry, magnetic recordings, photovoltaic applications, and optical coatings. Because of the ultrasmall size at atomic levels, the effect of quantum size becomes prominent, and the sensitivity of size is defined even by a difference of a single atom. Additionally, the effect is of utmost importance as the si… Show more
