研究目的
To obtain nanoparticles of Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni with controlled sizes and properties using laser ablation, and to investigate methods to prevent their oxidation and aggregation during storage.
研究成果
Laser ablation successfully produced nanoparticles of Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni with controlled sizes and minimal oxidation. Using organic alcohols as the working fluid and saturating the solvent with molecular hydrogen were effective strategies to prevent oxidation and aggregation. The study advances the synthesis of transition metal nanoparticles with potential applications in various fields.
研究不足
The method requires precise control of laser parameters and working fluid composition to achieve desired nanoparticle properties. Oxidation and aggregation during storage remain challenges, though mitigated by hydrogen saturation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Laser ablation in liquids was used to generate nanoparticles. The method involved focusing laser radiation on a solid target submerged in a working fluid.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Transition metals (Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) were used as targets. Organic alcohols (ethanol and propanol-2) served as the working fluid to minimize oxidation.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Nd:YAG laser (λ = 1064 nm, τ = 10 ns, repetition frequency 10 kHz, average power up to 20 W, pulse energy 2 mJ) and a fiber Yb laser (λ = 1064 nm, τ = 4–200 ns, repetition frequency 20 kHz, average power up to 20 W, pulse energy 1 mJ) with scan heads for laser radiation control.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The target was placed under a thin layer of working fluid in a glass cell. Laser radiation was focused on the target surface to ablate material, forming nanoparticles. Some nanoparticles underwent further laser fragmentation to achieve desired sizes.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Particle size was characterized using an analytical centrifuge DC24000. Transmission electron microscopy (Carl Zeiss 200FE) with electron loss energy spectroscopy confirmed nanoparticle morphology and composition.
