Nanoparticle growth, coalescence, and phase change in the gas-phase by molecular dynamics

This article gives an overview of recent advances in molecular dynamics simulations for the investigation of particle nucleation, condensation and sintering or coalescence rates in the gas-phase highlighting the effect of particle characteristics, such as crystallinity, at the nanoscale, on end-product properties.Graphical abstract
