Tracking ultrafast laser ablation to tune nanoparticle films
NAPLES, Italy – Ultrafast laser ablation yields two distinctly different plumes, and the behavior of both can be described well by models, researchers report. That information could be used to produce novel nanoparticle films of magnetic and semiconductor materials, researcher Salvatore Amoruso said. “In the latter case, we are considering the variation of the optical properties of these systems for application in optical sensing, photovoltaics, and so on,” he said. Amoruso, assistant pro...
