Abstract
A model is proposed for the convective flow of a liquid phase of a glycerol colloidal solution and noble metal nanoparticles (Ag, Au, Ag/Au) near a substrate. The diffusion approximation is used to describe the formation of nanocluster systems on the substrate. A model of diffusion-limited aggregation was implemented by applying a cellular automaton in the Neumann neighborhood. A diverse structure of model systems of nanoclusters that adequately describes structural features of the experimental samples was obtained by varying the parameter of the probability of aggregation. The proposed models can be of use in calibrating the parameters of the experimental production of systems of noble metal nanoclusters and describing processes that have a key influence on the nanocluster structures in the first approximation.
