Shift of nanodroplet and nanocluster size distributions induced by dopant pick-up statistics
arXiv:2505.10516 · doi:10.1063/5.0252959 10.1063/5.0252959
Abstract
In pick-up experiments using nanodroplet and nanocluster beams, the size distribution of hosts carrying a specified number of dopants changes when the vapor density in the pick-up region is altered. This change, analyzed here, has quantitative consequences for the interpretation of data that are sensitive to host size, such as mass spectrometric, spectroscopic, and deflection measurements.
