I agree, the only thing smaller than an ion is a nucleus or electron.  An ion is
typically smaller than the atom of the same material.  He is totally blowing
smoke.

An angstrom is 10^-8 cm, or 1/10,000 of a micron or 1/10 of a nm.  A silver atom
is 1.44 and a silver ion is 1.26 angstroms in radius.  Anything smaller and it 
is
not silver.
