研究不足
The study is limited by the complexity of the physical and chemical processes involved in the ablation and particle formation, which may affect the reproducibility and scalability of the synthesis method. Additionally, the specific conditions required for the synthesis (e.g., laser parameters, solvent properties) may limit the generalizability of the findings.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized ultra-short laser ablation in liquid (LAL) to synthesize transition metal carbide nanoparticles. The methodology involved ablating tantalum and molybdenum targets in various solvents (water, acetone, ethanol, and toluene) using a Ti:sapphire laser source.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Tantalum and molybdenum metallic targets with purity over
3:99% were ablated in selected solvents. The products were characterized by TEM, XRD, and XPS analysis. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A Ti:sapphire laser source (Spitfire, 1 kHz, 800 nm, 100 fs, 3 mJ for each ablation) was used for ablation. The products were centrifuged and dried for XRD and XPS measurements.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Each metal target was ablated in the selected solvent for 10 min. The laser source was focused perpendicularly on the target surface with a fluence of 2 J/cm
5:The products were then centrifuged and dried for further analysis. Data Analysis Methods:
The acquired XPS spectra were analyzed by a curve-fitting program, Googly, allowing the simultaneous fitting of peaks in the form of a Voigt function and their associated background in a wide energy range.
