The field of nanoscience was pioneered in the 1980s with the groundbreaking research on
clusters, which later led to the discovery of fullerenes. Handbook of Nanophysics: Clusters …

In this tutorial review paper, we illustrate how computer modeling can contribute to a better
insight in inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). We start with a brief …

A brief overview is presented of the principal areas where thermal plasmas had a significant
technological impact over the past century. This is followed by an analysis of the specific role …

The evaporation of a micro-sized silicon solid precursor in a laboratory scale inductively
coupled thermal plasma system for nanoparticle synthesis is investigated numerically using …

An inductively coupled radio frequency (RF) plasma system was employed to produce
spherical TiAl based alloy powders, and the spheroidization process was investigated by …

A three-dimensional numerical model for the simulation of the behaviour of a commercial
inductively coupled plasma torch with non-axisymmetric reaction chamber has been …

The optimization of the reaction chamber for the silicon nanoparticle synthesis process by a
radio-frequency induction thermal plasma is addressed using a plasma thermo-fluid …

A numerical study is done to understand the possible operating regimes of RF-ICP torch (3
MHz, 50 kW) using different gases for plasma formation at atmospheric pressure. A two …

Radio frequency (RF) thermal plasma treatment is studied for the size reduction and the
spheroidization of coarse glass particles to change them into submicrometer‐sized powders …

The particle size of coarse silicon is a very important parameter in plasma-assisted
production of nano-silicon, because the appropriate size cannot only improve nano-silicon's …
