In this study, in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy is used to investigate the growth and transport of nanoparticles inside a gas aggregation source (GAS) dependent on the Ar gas flow and operating pressure. It was found that the nanoparticles were becoming trapped at different positions inside the GAS dependent on the gas flow.

Moreover, in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy suggested the presence of large nanoparticles inside the GAS, which were not observed outside. Computational fluid dynamic simulations were performed to study the velocity distribution inside the GAS.

Three distinct areas were identified, where nanoparticles can become trapped or lost. The gas flow velocity distribution was found to strongly impact the transport of nanoparticles.
