Polymer matrix nanocomposites filled with metallic and alloy nanoparticles add functionality in various applications such as optical devices and in the energy sector. However, matrix coupling agents or nanoparticle ligands may be unwanted additives, potentially inhibiting the resulting nanocomposite to be processed by injection molding. The generation of stabilizer-free Au, Ag, and AuAg alloy nanoparticle acrylate composites is achieved by picosecond-pulsed laser ablation of the respective metal target in the liquid monomer. Complementary to laser ablation of the solid alloy, we have alloyed nanoparticles by post-irradiation of Au and Ag colloids in the liquid monomer. The optical properties of the colloidal nanoparticles are successfully transferred to the solid poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix and characterized by their plasmon resonance that can be easily tuned between 400 and 600 nm by laser alloying in the liquid monomer. 相似文献

The influence of fundamental and second harmonic wavelength on ablation efficiency and nanoparticle properties is studied
during picosecond laser ablation of silver, zinc, and magnesium in polymer-doped tetrahydrofuran. Laser ablation in stationary
liquid involves simultaneously the fabrication of nanoparticles by ablation of the target material and fragmentation of dispersed
nanoparticles by post irradiation. The ratio in which the laser pulse energy contributes to these processes depends on laser
wavelength and colloidal properties. For plasmon absorbers (silver), using the second harmonic wavelength leads to a decrease
of the nanoparticle productivity over process time along with exponential decrease in particle diameter, while using the fundamental
wavelength results in a constant ablation rate and linear decrease in particle diameter. For colloids made of materials without
plasmon absorption (zinc, magnesium), laser scattering is the colloidal property that limits nanoparticle productivity by
Mie-scattering of dispersed nanoparticle clusters. 相似文献

Recent studies demonstrated that the process to produce metal and oxide nanoparticles by laser ablation of consolidated microparticles is a convenient and energy-efficient way to prepare nanoparticles. In this work, the novel process is applied to nanoparticle synthesis in the liquid environment and the results are compared with those by the gas-phase process. Metal and oxide nanoparticles are synthesized by pulsed laser ablation of the compacted metal microparticles using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser in water. It is shown that the process is effective for preparing nanoparticle suspensions having relatively uniform size distributions. While the laser fluence and the degree of compaction strongly influence the size of the produced nanoparticle in air, the sedimentation time is shown to be the most critical factor to determine the mean size of the suspended particles. 相似文献

Size of nanoparticles is an important parameter for their applications. The real-time monitoring is required for reliable and reproducible production of nanoparticles with controllable size. We present results of our research on development of the system for the online nanoparticle characterization during their production by a laser. The laser ablation chamber which allows measurements of surface plasmon resonance spectra during the nanoparticle generation process has been designed and fabricated. The online characterization system was tested by producing and modification of gold nanoparticles. Nanoparticles were generated by nanosecond-laser (wavelength 1064 nm) ablation of gold target in deionized water, and optimal conditions for the highest nanoparticle productivity were estimated. The mean diameter of nanoparticles was determined using their absorption spectra measured in the real-time during the ablation experiments and from the TEM images analysis, and it varied from 20 to 45 nm. The mismatch between nanoparticle diameters, estimated using these two methods, is due to the polydispersity of the generated nanoparticles. The further experiments of laser-induced modification of colloidal gold nanoparticles were carried out using second harmonic (wavelength 532 nm) of nanosecond Nd:YAG laser and alteration in nanoparticle size were acquired by the online measurement system. 相似文献

In-situ functionalization of gold nanoparticles with fluorophore-tagged oligonucleotides is studied by comparing femtosecond
laser ablation in stationary liquid and in biomolecule flow. Femtosecond laser pulses induce significant degradation to sensitive
biomolecules when ablating gold in a stationary solution of oligonucleotides. Contrary, in-situ conjugation of nanoparticles
in biomolecule flow considerably reduces the degree of degradation studied by gel electrophoresis and UV–Vis spectrometry.
Ablating gold with 100 μJ femtosecond laser pulses DNA sequence does not degrade, while the degree of fluorophore tag degradation
was 84% in stationary solution compared to 5% for 1 mL/min liquid flow. It is concluded that femtosecond laser-induced degradation
of biomolecules is triggered by absorption of nanoparticle conjugates suspended in the colloid and not by ablation of the
target. Quenching of nanoparticle size appears from 0.5 μM biomolecule concentration for 0.3 μg/s nanoparticle productivity
indicating the successful surface functionalization. Finally, increasing the liquid flow rate from stationary to 450 mL/min
enhances nanoparticle productivity from 0.2 μg/s to 1.5 μg/s, as increasing liquid flow allows removal of light absorbing
nanoparticles from the ablation zone, avoiding attenuation of subsequent laser photons. 相似文献

The process of laser ablation of microparticles has been shown to generate nanoparticles from microparticles; but the generation
of nanoparticle networks from microparticles has never been reported before. We report a unique approach for the generation
of nanoparticle networks through ablation of microparticles. Using this approach, two samples containing microparticles of
lead oxide (Pb3O4) and nickel oxide (NiO), respectively, were ablated under ambient conditions using a femtosecond laser operating in the MHz
repetition rate regime. Nanoparticle networks with particle diameter ranging from 60 to 90 nm were obtained by ablation of
microparticles without use of any specialized equipment, catalysts or external stimulants. The formation of finer nanoparticle
networks has been explained by considering the low pressure region created by the shockwave, causing rapid condensation of
microparticles into finer nanoparticles. A comparison between the nanostructures generated by ablating microparticle and those
by ablating bulk substrate was carried out; and a considerable reduction in size and narrowed size distribution was observed.
Our nanostructure fabrication technique will be a unique process for nanoparticle network generation from a vast array of
materials. 相似文献

We have successfully prepared a novel nanoparticle solution of Sr2MgSi2O7: Eu2+, Dy3+ with afterglow properties by means of laser ablation in liquid. This process also produced by-products of different kinds, depending on the liquid used. The amount of by-product and the size of the nanoparticles were controlled by the energy density of laser ablation. The amount of by-product was reduced by a decrease in the energy density, which also decreased the particle size of the nanoparticles. The PL spectrum of the nanoparticles was the same as that of the target materials used for laser ablation. The afterglow properties deteriorated with a decrease in particle size. We concluded that an increase in specific surface area caused by a decrease in particle size resulted in the decrease of luminescent intensity. 相似文献

We numerically examine the mechanisms involved in nanoparticle formation by laser ablation of metallic targets in vacuum and in liquid. We consider the very early ablation stage providing initial conditions for much longer plume expansion processes. In the case of ultrashort laser ablation, the initial population of primary nanoparticles is formed at this stage. When a liquid is present, the dynamics of the laser plume expansion differs from that in vacuum. Low compressibility of the ambient liquid results in strong confinement conditions. As a result, ablation threshold rises drastically, the ablated material is compressed, part of it becomes supersaturated and the backscattered material additionally heats the target. The extension of a molten layer leads to the additional ablation at a later stage also favoring nanoparticle formation. The obtained results thus explain recent experimental findings and help to predict the role of the experimental parameters. The performed analysis indicates ways of a control over nanoparticle synthesis. 相似文献

The experimental data on the generation of metal and semiconductor nanoparticles during their laser ablation in liquids is
reviewed. The dependence of the morphology of noble metal nanoparticles on the liquid type and laser parameters is discussed.
The data on the kinetics of the formation of alloyed Au-Ag nanoparticles under laser irradiation of a mixture of colloid solutions
of individual nanoparticles are presented. The effect of femtosecond laser beam self-action during metal ablation in liquids
via the second harmonic generation at Ag nanoclusters is discussed. The data on the generation of core-shell nanoparticles
during laser ablation of alloys and in the presence of the chemical interaction of formed nanoparticles with surrounding liquid
are presented. It was shown that laser ablation of CdS and ZnSe crystals leads to the formation of quantum dots of these semiconductors
in solution. The parameters controlling the properties of nanoparticles during ablation in liquids and possible applications
of the method are discussed. 相似文献

Femtosecond laser ablation is used to generate nanoparticle aerosols and colloids from solid targets of various materials
(Ti, Ag, Au, Co, etc.) in air and water ambience. We determine the influence of different laser parameters (pulse energy,
pulse overlap) and properties of media (air, airbrush, water) on the rate of production and size distribution of the laser-generated
nanoparticles. It is shown that the pulse overlap and laser fluence are the parameters determining the nanoparticle size.
At optimum conditions the nanoparticle productivity can be increased by 150–300%. The generation of multimaterial nanoparticle
dispersions is demonstrated. Being free of toxic impurities, the laser-produced nanoparticles may be promising for biomedical
applications.

In this work, we study the application of ultrafast pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in ZnO nanomaterial synthesis, including
nanoparticles and nanorods. PLD using long pulse (nanosecond) lasers has been widely used as a method for growing prototype
materials. The recently-emerged ultrafast PLD is expected to be able to overcome the problem of large liquid droplet formation.
Using near infrared and femtosecond laser pulses in ablation, we first characterize the ablation plume using a Langmuir probe
and plasma optical emission spectroscopy. We then examine the structural properties of the nanoparticles generated during
low-fluence ablation. Finally, we demonstrate that using nanoparticle aggregates as templates, assisted by plume-excited nitrogen
radicals at a high fluence, high quality ZnO nanorods can be grown free of metal catalysts. 相似文献

Enhancement of organic nanoparticle preparation by laser ablation in aqueous solution using surfactants 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Nanoparticle and metal phthalocyanine (MPc) transparent colloidal aqueous solutions were directly obtained by 355 nm YAG laser ablation. We found that too long an irradiation time does not contribute to producing nanoparticles and their generation efficiency increases with a low solution temperature. We believe this due to nanoparticle reassociation which is caused by hydrophobicity. To prevent generated nanoparticles from reassociating we performed experiments adding two kinds of ionic and nonionic surfactants into solution. We found five characteristics of nanoparticle generation from adding surfactants to a solution regardless of the type of surfactant used. These characteristics are that: (1) production efficiency increases; (2) stability is better after irradiation; (3) irradiation intensity needed to induce nanoparticle generation becomes lower; (4) mean size of the generated nanoparticles becomes smaller; and (5) crystalline structures of oxo(phthalocyaninato) vanadium (IV) (VOPc) are controllable by changing the surfactant concentration. 相似文献

Pulsed laser ablation (PLA) in liquid medium was successfully employed to synthesize hydroxyapatite (HAp) colloidal nanoparticles.
The crystalline phase, particle morphology, size distribution and microstructure of the HAp nanoparticles were investigated
in detail. The obtained HAp nanoparticles had spherical shape with sizes ranging from 5 to 20 nm. The laser ablation and the
nanoparticle forming process were studied in terms of the explosive ejection mechanism by investigating the change of the
surface morphology on target. The stoichiometry and bonding properties were studied by using XPS, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy.
A molar ratio of Ca/P of the prepared HAp nanoparticles was more stoichiometric than the value reported in the case of ablation
in vacuum. 相似文献

The generation and characterization of nanoparticulate carrier systems is important for drug delivery, biosensing and in vivo or in vitro diagnostics. Conventional nanoparticle generation is based on chemical synthesis methods requiring time intensive reaction and additive design for each material. Successive purification and surface functionalisation is often required after the nanoparticle generation to achieve pure nanoparticle-bioconjugates. We established a novel single step method, which allows the generation of pure nanoparticles and their in situ conjugation with biomolecules bearing electron donating moieties using pulsed laser ablation in liquids. For comparison between unspecific binding and binding through strong dative bonds (here: S-Au), we applied this preparation method to the conjugation of gold nanoparticles with unmodified and thiolated oligonucleotides. In order to determine optimal parameters (laser pulse energy, focus diameter), the influence on productivity of nanoparticle generation and their interaction with oligonucleotides is studied. We report quenching of nanoparticle growth and modification of the surface plasmon resonance as evidence of a successful functionalisation. Their stability in ionic solutions is evidenced with relevance to biological and medical assays. Negligible differences between the two model bioconjugations evidence the universality of the established in situ bioconjugation method. 相似文献

The use of liquid nitrogen as a medium for laser ablation made it possible to obtain Au particles shaped as cores, cores/hollow shells, and hollow shells by radiation of a picosecond Nd:YAG laser. In this case, the substitution of the cryogenic liquid medium of the colloid by evaporating on the surface of a room-temperature liquid causes the shift and broadening of the plasmon resonance peak of Au nanoparticles, which results from the formation of fractal nanoparticle aggregates. 相似文献

Pulsed laser ablation (PLA) in the liquid phase was successfully employed to synthesize calcium tungstate (CaWO4) nanocolloidal suspension. The crystalline phase, particle morphology and laser ablation mechanism for the colloidal nanoparticles
were investigated using XRD, TEM and SEM. The obtained colloidal suspension consisted of well-dispersed CaWO4 nanoparticles which showed a spherical shape with sizes ranging from 5 to 30 nm. The laser ablation and the nanoparticle
forming process were discussed under consideration of the photo-ablation mechanism, where the nanoparticles were generated
by rapid condensation of the plume in high pressured ethanol vapor. The optical properties of the prepared CaWO4 colloidal nanoparticles were analyzed in detail using XPS, Raman spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy and PL spectrophotometry.
The optical band gap was estimated by Tauc and Menths law.

Various carbon-based nanoparticles ablated at the conditions suitable for efficient harmonic generation during propagation of ultrashort pulses through the laser-produced plasmas were studied. The transmission electron microscopy of ablated debris and the time-of-flight mass-spectroscopy studies of plasmas are presented. The conditions of laser ablation of the carbon-contained nanoparticles (fullerenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers, and diamond nanoparticles) were varied to define the impeding processes restricting the harmonic yield from such laser-produced plasmas. These studies show that the enhancement of harmonics during ablation of nanoparticle targets was related with the appearance of small carbon clusters at the moment of propagation of the ultrashort laser pulses though such plasmas. 相似文献

In this contribution we present recent experimental and theoretical results on local near-field assisted laser ablation. Along these lines, we have generated sub-diffraction sized nanostructures on fused silica substrates, exploiting the local near fields of highly ordered triangular gold nanoparticle arrays generated by nanosphere lithography. After preparation, the nanoparticle arrays were irradiated with a single 35 fs long laser pulse with a central wavelength of λ=790 nm. The pulse energy was set to E=3.9 μJ, resulting in a fluence well below the ablation threshold of the fused silica substrates. In addition, 3D electromagnetic simulations using a finite integration technique in time domain have been performed. The simulations demonstrate that indeed the local field in the vicinity of the tips of the triangular nanoparticles overcome the ablation threshold and easily explain the generated nanostructures. Most importantly, the simulations show, that higher order modes contribute to the ablation process. These modes cause ablation along the side edges of the nanoparticles. Finally, we demonstrate, that the optical properties of the triangular nanoparticles, which can be tuned by their morphology, are crucial parameters for the generation of the ablation structures. 相似文献

The mechanisms of material ablation and nanoparticle generation from metal samples exposed to intense short laser pulses are experimentally investigated. We performed measurements of the ablated volume using optical microscopy and the analysis of the ablation plume by fast imaging. The results confirm the existence of two distinguished ablation regimes as a function of the laser fluence, and give a deeper insight in the involved physical mechanisms. Thus, both regimes are found to be related to the relative amount of atoms and nanoparticles within the plume. Comparing the results obtained for copper and gold, it is possible to determine the influence of electron-lattice coupling on the sample heat regime and the resulting plume properties. 相似文献

Formation of silicon nanoparticles and web-like aggregates by femtosecond laser ablation in a background gas 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We show that the mechanism of nanoparticle formation during femtosecond laser ablation of silicon is affected by the presence
of a background gas. Femtosecond laser ablation of silicon in a H2 or H2S background gas yields a mixture of crystalline and amorphous nanoparticles. The crystalline nanoparticles form via a thermal
mechanism of nucleation and growth. The amorphous material has smaller features and forms at a higher cooling rate than the
crystalline nanoparticles. The background gas also results in the suspension of plume material in the gas for extended periods,
resulting in the formation (on a thin film carbon substrate) of unusual aggregated structures including nanoscale webs that
span tears in the film. The presence of a background gas provides additional control of the structure and composition of the
nanoparticles during short pulse laser ablation.
