Abstract

Nanoparticle formation by laser ablation in liquids is studied numerically. We investigate such processes as cluster ejection, cluster nucleation, and aggregation. First, laser plume formation, its expansion, and confinement by the liquid are considered. These processes are connected with the formation of two shock waves: one moving inside the solid and the second one propagating in the liquid. If short and ultrashort laser pulses are used, the created plasma plume does not absorb laser radiation. In this case, a larger energy fraction is transferred into the solid during much shorter time, so that the ablation process is explosive. As a result, cluster precursors are ejected directly from the target, and the created plasma is confined to a smaller volume. Shorter laser pulses thus provide more favorable conditions for nanoparticle formation. In addition to the following short plasma expansion stage, a much longer aggregation process occurring in the liquid phase is found to affect the final size distribution.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
