It now appears that the general nature of the deviations from uniformity in the spectrum of a
complicated nucleus is essentially the same in all regions of the spectrum and over the …

The subject of small metallic particle properties is outlined with emphasis on quantum
electronic effects. The theoretical background for interpretation of experiments is discussed …

In this paper we present a novel and versatile technique for the production of ultrafine metal
particles by evaporation from a temperature‐regulated oven containing a reduced …

The Maxwell Garnett and Bruggeman effective medium theories are derived for the average
dielectric permeability of heterogeneous materials from a unified theoretical approach. It …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses several composites or granular or porous
materials that display inhomogeneity on a macroscopic scale. In such materials, there are …

of available information. Even more importantly, some authors who have contributed
substantially to an area may have been overlooked. For this I apologize. I have, however …

Using the simple model of electrons in a box, a dielectric function is derived which should be
appropriate for small metal particles. This dielectric function is used to examine quantum …

We have prepared spherical and individually isolated gold particles with median diameters
in the interval 3 to 4 nm and log-normal size distribution by evaporation in a few Torr of air …

Co‐Al2O3 composite films were produced by electron‐beam coevaporation in a system with
elaborate process control. The deposits were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy …
