This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic mechanisms of pulsed laser ablation in liquids (PLAL) as a method for the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) were considered. Physical and chemical processes occurring during the PLAL that determine the formation, composition and structure of the nanoparticles obtained are described. The influence of the composition and properties of the target material, the solvent and the characteristics of the laser irradiation on the efficiency of the synthesis of nanoparticles is discussed. Separately, an influence of the absorption and scattering (including nonlinear) of laser radiation in the dispersion of nanoparticles on the primary synthetic processes and secondary transformations inside the colloidal solution is examined. The specificity of the characterization of the colloidal solutions of oxide particles produced by PLAL is highlighted. The most promising practical applications of nanomaterials obtained are identified and the examples of their successful use in catalytic research and biomedicine are provided.

Download or read book Metal oxide Nanostructures Fabricated from Reactive Laser Ablation in Liquid written by Mallory G. John and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of metal-oxide nanostructures is a growing area due to their applications in diverse fields spanning energy conversion and storage, chemical manufacturing, and en- vironmental technology. This interest in catalytically active nanomaterials has prompted the synthesis and investigation of highly functionalized nanoparticles (NPs), including core- shell, silicate-stabilized, and bi- and multi-metallic nanocomposites. While wet-chemical synthesis methods of metal-oxide nanostructures have led to several morphologies, compositions, and shapes, these syntheses often require high temperatures, toxic solvents or reducing agents, and long reaction times. Laser synthesis and processing of colloids (LSPC) encompasses both 'top down' and 'bottom up' approaches to synthesize metal-oxide nanostructures. Pulsed laser ablation in liquid (PLAL) involves focusing laser pulses onto a solid target immersed in a liquid in which target atoms coalesce to form nanostructured materials once ejected into solution. Laser reduction in liquid (LRL) is a second laser-assisted approach to synthesizing nanomaterials, where photochemical reduction of metal salts is achieved by focusing the laser beam into solution. Both PLAL and LRL are able to generate metal and semiconductor NPs at room temperature in aqueous solutions without added surfactants or stabilizers, giving them an advantage over conventional wet-chemical methods. Recently, these two approaches have been combined into a single step- referred to as reactive laser ablation in liquid (RLAL), in which laser ablation of a solid target is carried out in a metal salt solution. This work goes through the synthesis and characterization of femtosecond-RLAL (fs-RLAL)-generated silica-metal nanostructures, and discusses the relationship between the precursor solution composition, the product morphology, and the catalytic activity toward a model para-nitrophenol (PNP) reduction reaction. First, silica-Au NPs were synthesized, exhibiting two populations of product nanoparticles which resulted from reaction dynamics occurring on two distinct timescales. Next, silica-Cu NPs were synthesized under different pH conditions, yielding pH-dependent product morphology. The different morphologies resulted from the surface charge of ablated silica species, which repelled the Cu2 ions in solution at low pH yielding core/shell morphology, and attracted the Cu2+ ions at high pH, forming well-dispersed

The book provides essential scientific and technical information to researchers and engineers already working in the field as well as students and young scientists planning to work in the area in the future. Lasers found application in materials processing practically since their invention in 1960, and are currently used widely in manufacturing. The main driving force behind this fact is that the lasers can provide unique solutions in material processing with high quality, high efficiency, high flexibility, high resolution, versatility and low environmental load. Macro-processing based on thermal process using infrared lasers such as CO2 lasers has been the mainstream in the early stages, while research and development of micro- and nano-processing are becoming increasingly more active as short wavelength and/or short pulse width lasers have been developed. In particular, recent advances in ultrafast lasers have opened up a new avenue to laser material processing due to the capabilities of ultrahigh precision micro- and nanofabrication of diverse materials. This handbook is the first book covering the basics, the state-of-the-art and important applications of the dynamic and rapidly expanding discipline of laser micro- and nanoengineering. This comprehensive source makes readers familiar with a broad spectrum of approaches to solve all relevant problems in science and technology.
