Laser Ablation Synthesis and Properties of Nanocrystalline Oxide Powders

  • Reference work entry

Abstract

The results on synthesis of nanopowders with different composition by laser ablation of target with eventual condensation of vapor in buffer gas flow and advantages of this method are reported. The optimal conditions of nanopowder production and the influence of pressure and kinds of buffer gas are discussed. The particle size distribution is presented, and the reasons of their similarity despite differing laser plume size and physical–chemical properties of material are pointed out. The characteristics of nanopowders produced by laser ablation are given, including chemical composition of nanoparticles, their sizes, phase composition, output rate, and specific energy demands. The main attention is given to nanopowders which are used in the fabrication of fuel cells based on solid solutions, laser ceramics, wastewater purification, etc. It is noted that at evaporation of targets sintered from several oxides, the excessive amount of low-melting component is registered. Nevertheless, the nanopowder of complex composition with deviation from demanded stoichiometry less than 0.2 % can be produced by selection of target composition and evaporation conditions.

The particle size distribution and possibility of removing the largest particles are reported. It is noted that at the evaporation of targets with abruptly variable absorbance index (semitransparent targets), the mechanism of evaporation and the surface of targets are changed.
