Application of laser radiation for the synthesis of nanopowders in liquid media

ABSTRACT

This article discusses the features of obtaining a metal nanopowder by laser ablation in a liquid. Metal nanopowders are increasingly used in various fields of science and technology, including additive technologies. A growing number of researchers around the world are using laser ablation in liquids. However, this method has a number of properties related to the kinetics of particle growth during cooling of the plasma plume. The effect of energy in a pulse was also investigated in this paper.
