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.

The work continues a series of studies of the micro-hotspot model a thermal explosion. The dependences of the critical energy fluence and the temperature of the reaction kernel in pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) on the radius of aluminum nanoparticles at half-maximum pulse durations of 10 to 150 ns are calculated. For each pulse duration, there is an optimal nanoparticle radius at which the critical energy fluence is minimal. The dependences of these parameters on the pulse duration are derived. It is shown that there is a universal relationship, independent of the pulse duration, between the normalized critical energy fluence and the nanoparticle radius. 相似文献

The unique optical properties of nanoparticles are highly sensitive in respect to particle shapes, sizes, and localization on a sample. This demands for a fully controlled fabrication process. The use of femtosecond laser pulses to generate and transfer nanoparticles from a bulk target towards a collector substrate is a promising approach. This process allows a controlled fabrication of spherical nanoparticles with a very smooth surface. Several process parameters can be varied to achieve the desired nanoparticle characteristics. In this paper, the influence of two of these parameters, i.e. the applied pulse energy and the laser beam shape, on the generation of Si nanoparticles from a bulk Si target are studied in detail. By changing the laser intensity distribution on the target surface one can influence the dynamics of molten material inducing its flow to the edges or to the center of the focal spot. Due to this dynamics of molten material, a single femtosecond laser pulse with a Gaussian beam shape generates multiple spherical nanoparticles from a bulk Si target. The statistical properties of this process, with respect to number of generated nanoparticles and laser pulse energy are investigated. We demonstrate for the first time that a ring-shaped intensity distribution on the target surface results in the generation of a single silicon nanoparticle with a controllable size. Furthermore, the generated silicon nanoparticles presented in this paper show strong electric and magnetic dipole resonances in the visible and near-infrared spectral range. Theoretical simulations as well as optical scattering measurements of single silicon nanoparticles are discussed and compared. 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

This study investigates the effects of pulse energy distributions on subwavelength ripple structures (the ablation shapes and subwavelength ripples) using the plasma model with the consideration of laser particle–wave duality. In the case studies, the laser pulse (800 nm, 50 fs) trains consist of double pulses within a train with the energy ratios of 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1. Localized transient electron densities, material optical properties, and surface plasmon generation are strongly affected by the energy distributions. Hence, the adjustment of the ablation shape and subwavelength ripples can be achieved based on localized transient electron dynamics control during femtosecond laser pulse train processing of dielectrics. The simulation results show that better, more uniform structures, in terms of ablation shapes and subwavelength ripples, can be easily formed at a lower fluence or subpulse energy ratio of 1:1 with a fixed fluence. It is also found that pulse trains at a 1:1 energy ratio are preferred for drilling high-aspect-ratio microholes or microchannels. 相似文献

High-energy femtosecond Yb-doped fiber laser operating in the anomalous dispersion regime 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
We report on high-energy ultrashort pulse generation from a passively mode-locked ytterbium-doped large-mode-area photonic crystal fiber oscillator operating in the anomalous dispersion regime. In the single-pulse regime, the laser directly generates 880 mW of average power of sub-500 fs pulses at a repetition rate of 53.33 MHz, corresponding to a pulse energy of 16.5 nJ. Stable and self-starting operation is obtained by adapting the spot size at the saturable absorber mirror to the pulse evolution in the low-nonlinearity fiber. The approach presented demonstrates the scaling potential of fiber based short pulse oscillators towards the microJ-level. 相似文献

We investigated the ion laser-produced plasma plume generated during ultrafast laser ablation of copper and silicon targets in high vacuum. The ablation plasma was induced by ≈50 fs, 800 nm Ti:Sa laser pulses irradiating the target surface at an angle of 45°. An ion probe was used to investigate the time-of-flight profiles of the emitted ions in a laser fluence range from the ablation threshold up to ≈10 J/cm2. The angular distribution of the ion flux and average velocity of the produced ions were studied by moving the ion probe on a circle around the ablation spot. The angular distribution of the ion flux is well described by an adiabatic and isentropic model of expansion of a plume produced by laser ablation of solid targets. The angular distribution of the ion flux narrows as the laser pulse fluence increases. Moreover, the ion average velocity reaches values of several tens of km/s, evidencing the presence of ions with kinetic energy of several hundred eV. Finally, the ion flux energy is confined in a narrow angular region around the target normal. 相似文献

We studied a new pulse laser ablation phenomenon on a liquid surface layer, which is caused by the difference between the
refractive indices of the two materials involved. The present study was motivated by our previous study, which showed that
laser ablation can occur at the interface between a transparent material and a gas or liquid medium when the laser pulse is
focused through the transparent material. In this case, the ablation threshold fluence is reduced remarkably. In the present
study, experiments were conducted in water and air in order to confirm this phenomenon for a combination of two fluid media
with different refractive indices. This phenomenon was observed in detail by pulse laser shadowgraphy. A high-resolution film
was used to record the phenomenon with a Nd:YAG pulse laser with 10-ns duration as a light source. The laser ablation phenomenon
on the liquid surface layer caused by a focused Nd:YAG laser pulse with 1064-nm wavelength was found to be followed by the
splashing of the liquid surface, inducing a liquid jet with many ligaments. The liquid jet extension velocity was around 1000
m/s in a typical case. The liquid jet decelerated drastically due to rapid atomization at the tips of the ligaments. The liquid
jet phenomenon was found to depend on the pulse laser parameters such as the laser fluence on the liquid surface, laser energy,
and laser beam pattern. The threshold laser fluence for the generation of a liquid jet was 20 J/cm2. By increasing the incident laser energy with a fixed laser fluence, the laser focused area increased, which eventually led
to an increase in the size of the plasma column. The larger the laser energy, the larger the jet size and the longer the temporal
behavior. The laser beam pattern was found to have significant effects on the liquid jet’s velocity, shape, and history. 相似文献

Effect of laser spot size on fusion neutron yield in laser--deuterium cluster interactions 下载免费PDF全文
The effect of the laser spot size on the neutron yield of table-top nuclear fusion from explosions of a femtosecond intense laser pulse heated deuterium clusters is investigated by using a simplified model, in which the cluster size distribution and the energy attenuation of the laser as it propagates through the cluster jet are taken into account. It has been found that there exists a proper laser spot size for the maximum fusion neutron yield for a given laser pulse and a specific deuterium gas cluster jet. The proper spot size, which is dependent on the laser parameters and the cluster jet parameters, has been calculated and compared with the available experimental data. A reasonable agreement between the calculated results and the published experimental results is found. 相似文献

Digital printing of interconnects for electronic devices requires processes capable of delivering controlled amounts of conductive
inks in a fast and accurate way. Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is an emerging technology that enables controlled printing
of voxels of a wide range of inks with micrometer resolution. Its use with high solids content nanoparticle suspensions results
in the deposition of voxels shaped as the impinging laser beam. This allows higher processing speeds, increasing the throughput
of the technique. However, the optimum conditions for printing spot-like voxels have not been determined, yet. In this work,
we perform a systematic study of the main experimental parameters, including laser pulse energy, laser beam dimensions, and
gap distance, in order to understand the role that these parameters play in laser printing. Based on these results, we find
that there is a narrow fluence range at distances close to the receiving substrate where spot-like voxels are deposited. We
also provide a detailed discussion of the possible mechanisms that may lead to the observed features. 相似文献

We measured 90% pump depletion in a singly resonant image-rotating nanosecond optical parametric oscillator that was pulse-injection seeded by a self-generated signal pulse. The oscillator was pumped by an 8 ns duration single-frequency 532 nm pulse from an injection-seeded Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and resonated an 803 nm signal. The pump and pulsed-seed beams had flat-topped spatial fluence profiles with diameters of approximately 6 mm, giving a cavity Fresnel number at 803 nm approaching 400. The beam cleanup effects of the image-rotating cavity produce a far-field signal spatial fluence profile with approximately 60% of its energy falling within the diffraction-limited spot size. 相似文献

Micro-ablation of crystalline silicon was performed by irradiating a silicon substrate with femtosecond laser pulses of wavelengths 786 nm or 393 nm focused using a conical axicon assisted with a convex lens. Focusing the laser beam close to the tip of the axicon by means of the lens significantly improved the efficiency of concentration of laser pulse energy at the central spot of the resulting Bessel-Gaussian intensity distribution. As a result, micron-sized holes were formed with the diameter determined by the ablation threshold in the calculated fluence profile. It is possible to predict hole size from the laser pulse energy and the wavelength. Crystalline particles, a few tens of nanometers in size, were formed near the ablated zone. 相似文献

Microscopic mechanisms and optimization of metal nanoparticle size distribution control using femtosecond laser pulse trains are studied by molecular dynamics simulations combined with the two-temperature model. Various pulse train designs, including subpulse numbers, separations, and energy distributions are compared, which demonstrate that the minimal mean nanoparticle sizes are achieved at the maximal subpulse numbers with uniform energy distributions. Femtosecond laser pulse trains significantly alter the film thermodynamical properties, adjust the film phase change mechanisms, and hence control the nanoparticle size distributions. As subpulse numbers and separations increase, alternation of film thermodynamical properties suppresses phase explosion, favors critical point phase separation, and significantly reduces mean nanoparticle size distributions. Correspondingly, the relative ratio of two phase change mechanisms causes two distinct nanoparticle size control regimes, where phase explosion leads to strong nanoparticle size control, and increasing ratio of critical point phase separation leads to gentle nanoparticles size control. 相似文献

Propagation of an intense short laser pulse through under-dense plasma can produce huge amplitude plasma wake field. A 3D particle in cell (PIC) method was used to simulate the wakefield generation for different laser parameters such as intensity, pulse duration, spot size and temporal pulse shape. Our study shows that the amplitude of wakefield is increased with laser intensity, but it is decreased with spot size. The results for pulse shape and pulse duration depend on their optimum values. 相似文献

Energy fluence, defined as pulse energy over irradiated area, is a key parameter of pulsed laser processing. Nevertheless, most of the authors using this term routinely do not realize the problems related to the accurate measurement of the spot size. In the present paper we are aiming to approach this problem by ablating crystalline Si wafers with pulses of a commercial KrF excimer laser (λ = 248 nm, τ = 15 ns) both in vacuum and at ambient atmosphere. For any pulse energy, the size of the ablated area monotonously increases with increasing number of pulses. The difference in the ablated area could be as high as a factor of three when 2000 consecutive pulses impinge on the surface. The existence and extent of the gradual lowering of multi-pulse ablation threshold queries the applicability of routinely used procedure of dividing the pulse energy with the size of the ablated area exposed into either carbon-paper or a piece of Si with one or a few pulses when determining the fluence. A more quantitative way is proposed allowing comparison of results originating from different laboratories. 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
