Abstract: Methods and dispensers for dispensing atomic objects are provided. An example method for dispensing atomic objects includes depositing a reaction agent and a composition comprising the atomic objects inside a crucible chamber of a crucible; and heating the composition comprising the atomic objects to an atomizing reaction temperature to cause an atomizing chemical reaction to occur. The reaction component comprises a material that is a participant in the atomizing chemical reaction, the result of the atomizing chemical reaction is elemental atomic objects, and (c) the elemental atomic object is dispensed during the atomizing chemical reaction.
