Sputter deposition of atoms onto liquid substrates aims at producing colloidal dispersions of
small monodisperse ultrapure nanoparticles (NPs). Since sputtering onto liquids combines …

Conspectus Noble metal nanoclusters are believed to be the transition between single metal
atoms, which show distinct optical properties, and metal nanoparticles, which show …

Sputter deposition onto a low volatile liquid matrix is a recently developed green synthesis
method for metal/metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs). In this review, we introduce the synthesis …

Colloidal solutions of metal nanoparticles (NPs) are typically produced by multi-step
