Soy metal nanooparçacıkların darbeli lazer ablasyon yöntemiyle sıvılarda üretimi ve ince film uygulamaları

Pulsed Laser Ablation in Liquid (PLAL) is promising, alternative, easy, fast and free of agent method for synthesization of nanoparticles (NPs). Various kinds of NPs can be synthesized easily by PLAL, such as base metals, noble metals, semiconductors, nanoalloys, magnetic and core?shell nanostructures. Additionally, crystallized NPs can be easily obtained in one-step procedure by PLAL without subsequent heat-treatments. Synthesization of gold (Au), silver (Ag) and platinum (Pt) NPs with PLAL using Nd: YLF laser (Q-Switched Laser, 527 nm wavelength, 16 W average power, 110 ns pulse duration, and 16 mJ pulse energy for 1 kHz) in different liquid environments is reported. Firstly, Ag, Au and Pt NPs have been synthesized with pulsed Nd: YLF laser in deionized water. Secondly, these NPs have been synthesized in methanol under similar conditions. Colloidal NP solutions are then characterized with Transmission Electron Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrophotometer, X-Ray Diffractometer and UV-Vis Photospectrometer analysis techniques.In the second part, applications of noble metal nanoparticles have been investigated. Firstly, Au and Ag NPs have been synthesized in Polyvinylpyrolidone solution in order to prepare nanofibrous composites. The Au and Ag NPs embedded in nanofibrous composites then characterized with UV-Vis Photospectrometer and Transmission Electron Microscopy. In addition, AuNPs have been synthesized with varying energies of laser (9,2 mJ, 12 mJ and 16 mJ for 1kHz) in order to understand the role of laser energy on PLAL. Finally, thin-film applications also presented: Pulsed Laser Deposition by PLAL and simple spin-coating deposition with AuNPs synthesized in methanol.
