Effect of laser fluence on the characteristics of Al nanoparticles produced by laser ablation in deionized water
Abstract
We have studied the effects of the laser fluence on the characteristics of Al nanoparticles produced by pulsed laser ablation of Al plate in deionized water without using surfactant. Five samples of aluminum nanoparticles were synthesized by nanosecond pulsed laser ablation of a high purity aluminum plate in distilled water at five different fluences in the range of 1–3 J/cm 2 . There is threshold fluence of the laser at which absorption of laser energy by water rises significantly. Absorption of the laser energy by water leads to increase oxygen atoms in the ablation medium and formation of aluminum oxide nanoparticles. By increasing the laser fluence below the threshold magnitude size of produced nanoparticles increase while by increasing the laser fluence above the threshold magnitude size of produced nanoparticles decrease. The UV-Visible-NIR absorption spectra of nanoparticles exhibit surface plasmon resonance absorption peak in the ultraviolet region. TEM and SEM micrographs are used to characterize the produced nanoparticles. The production rate of nanoparticles is increased with increasing the laser fluence.

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.
