In an interdisciplinary approach, basic concepts as well as recent developments in research and practical applications are authoritatively discussed by leading authors. Topics covered include 'naked' metal clusters, clusters stabilized by ligands, clusters in solids, and colloids.The reader will find answers to questions like:* How many metal atoms must a particle have to exhibit metallic properties?* How can the large specific surface of clusters and colloids be employed in catalysts?MicroclustersColloidsMolecular theoryMicroclusters.Colloids.Molecular theory.541.3Schmid Günter1937-1340763MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830481403321Clusters and colloids3062868UNINA
