  A nanometer-sized dielectric particle lying on a dielectric substrate is
exposed to the flux of low-energy electrons, ion and electron fluxes from a
cold plasma and the fluxes from the combination of these two sources with the
help of particle-in-cell simulation to investigate the particle lofting
phenomenon. The results are of interest for dust mitigation in the
semiconductor industry, the lunar exploration, and the explanation of the dust
levitation.
