研究目的
Investigating the nanosecond laser ablation of a Ni target in a liquid as a method of producing contamination-free micro- and nanosized colloidal structures, and the effect of applying an external magnetic field during the ablation process.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated the fabrication of contamination-free micro- and nanostructures through nanosecond laser ablation of a Ni target in liquid, with the application of an external magnetic field enabling the selective separation and deposition of micron and submicron particles. The laser wavelength was found to significantly influence the size distribution of the nanoparticles, with shorter wavelengths producing smaller particles. The method presents potential applications in biotechnology, catalysis, and magneto-optics devices.
研究不足
The study primarily focuses on the effects of laser wavelength and external magnetic field on the size distribution and morphology of Ni nanoparticles and microstructures. The influence of other parameters, such as laser pulse duration or different liquid media, was not extensively explored. Additionally, the mechanism behind the formation of micron-sized particles by nanosecond laser ablation in liquid is not fully understood.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved nanosecond laser ablation of a Ni target in double distilled water and ethanol, with and without an external magnetic field. The influence of different laser wavelengths (1064 nm, 532 nm, and 355 nm) on the characteristics of the ablated material was investigated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A thin Ni plate (purity 99.99%) was used as the target, immersed in either double distilled water or ethanol.
3:99%) was used as the target, immersed in either double distilled water or ethanol.
List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: A nanosecond Nd: YAG laser was used for ablation, with a fused silica lens for focusing. A permanent magnet (B = 0.4 T) was applied for experiments involving an external magnetic field. Characterization was performed using Optical Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Selected area electron diffraction, and Transmission Electron Microscopy.
4:4 T) was applied for experiments involving an external magnetic field. Characterization was performed using Optical Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Selected area electron diffraction, and Transmission Electron Microscopy.
Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The target was laser scanned using an XY translation stage. The laser fluence was varied, and the duration of the ablation process was 3 min for most experiments. For magnetic field-assisted experiments, a substrate was placed in the liquid to collect deposited material.
