Abstract
Transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction data show that, as silicon dissolves in molten aluminum, a great number of silicon nanospheres (from 1.5 nm to several tens of nanometers across) forms in the melt. When these particles are dissolved in toluene, the solution takes on a pale pink color and its transmission coefficient at a wavelength of 300 nm decreases fivefold. In such a solution, a great number of equal-size silicon nanospheres (1.5 nm in diameter) are observed.
