Influence of the nanoparticles agglomeration state in the quantum-confinement effects: Experimental evidences

The agglomeration state facilitates particle-particle interaction which produces important effects in the phonon confinement effects at the nanoscale. A partial phonon transmission between close nanoparticles yields a lower momentum conservation relaxation than in a single isolated nano...
