nebulizer use for nano-particle production...

I recently got a solid state nebulizer for a medical application.

It is small, quiet, and quickly makes a dense fog of regular aqueous
solutions.

It appears to make a monodisperse fog something like 2 microns in
diameter at about 1m//min.

It stricks me that this would be a superb way of making small
quantities of nanoparticles from anything that can be put into
non-acidic solution.

Make the fog, dry, & calcine it as it is drawn through a tube.

I suppose people already do this?

The device I'm using is an AeroNeb nebuliser by AeroGen Inc.
