Broadband dielectric study of anomalous diffusion in a poly(propylene glycol) melt confined to nanopores
The molecular dynamics of an oligomeric poly(propylene glycol) (PPG) melt confined to nanopores (pore dimensions 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 nm) is studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy. Because poly(pro...

The agglomeration of small silver clusters in noble gas matrices to form larger ones may be accompanied by the emission of light. Spectral analysis reveals that part of radiation intensity can be attributed to fluorescence from excited metal atoms, dimers and trimers the formation of which results from cluster/cluster agglomeration as a consequence of the gain in binding energy. The remaining spectral features must be assigned to excited clusters Agn, with n >= 4. ©1998 American Institute of Physics.
