Journal of Cluster Science Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Computational findings of temperature increase of clustering degree in saturated vapors are analyzed. A thermodynamic proof is presented and a simple criterion derived. Illustrations are based on saturated steam, magnesium and carbon vapor. The results are applicable to synthesis of fullerenes, metallofullerenes, and heterofullerenes, chemical vapor deposition technique, or atmospheric chemistry.
