Laser-Assisted Formation of Metallic Nanoparticles

Laser-Assisted Formation of Metallic Nanoparticles Synopsis

Using laser-based techniques to fabricate metallic nanoparticles is an emerging area which is growing at a fast rate and has many applications, particularly in the energy field. This book will discuss laser-based techniques to fabricate metallic nanoparticles, including experimental and theoretical aspects of metallic nanoparticle creation via laser-based methods, their properties and applications. The book will cover top-down formation of self-organized mono- and bimetallic nanoparticle formation via laser-induced liquid state dewetting of nanoscale thin films. It will also discuss the formation of multimetallic and high-entropy alloy nanoparticles which are one of the latest discoveries in the area of metallic nanostructures.
