Many-cluster-systems: Models of inhomogeneous matter

  • 1. Universitaet des Saarlandes, Saarbruecken (Germany, F.R.). Fachbereich 11 - Physik

Description

First, some general remarks concerning macroscopic 'cluster matter' are given. In the second part, three recent, mainly optically and electron-microscopically performed investigations are discussed which deal with special properties of noble metal cluster systems forming the building units of this kind of matter: (1) dressed Au-55 clusters, (2) electromagnetic coupling effects among coagulated clusters, (3) the transition towards compact inhomogeneous matter caused by coalescence of clusters.
