Abstract
Method for producing nano-particles from a precursor material. One embodiment of the method comprises vaporizing the precursor material to produce a vapor, directing the vapor into an isolation chamber, contacting the vapor contained in the isolation chamber with a quench fluid stream, the quench fluid stream cooling the vapor to produce the nano-particles, and removing the nano-particles from the isolation chamber.
