Abstract: | A one-dimensional nanodusty plasma was modeled by self-consistently coupling a plasma model with nanoparticle growth, charging,
and transport models. As nanoparticles grow from subnanometer to tens of nm in diameter, the numerical results predict a rich
spatiotemporal structure, including four distinct temporal phases: a charge-limited phase, a charge accumulation phase, an
early ion drag phase, and a sheath interaction phase. |
