Laser ablation in liquid-phase (LAL) has been developed since the 1990s, but the interest in
laser synthesis of colloids has emerged in the last decade due to a significant improvement …

This work presents a survey on the recent progress in laser ablation of a solid target in a
confining liquid for the synthesis of nanocrystals with focus on the mechanism of nanocrystal …

Ultra-short laser pulses are frequently used for material removal (ablation) in science,
technology and medicine. However, the laser energy is often used inefficiently, thus, leading …

Nanoparticles have become increasingly important for a variety of applications, including
medical diagnosis and treatment, energy harvesting and storage, catalysis, and additive …

We present composition-controlled synthesis of ZnO− Zn composite nanoparticles by laser
ablation of a zinc metal target in pure water or in aqueous solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate …

In the second part of the article, the subtractive processes—laser etching and cutting—in the
presence of liquid water will be reviewed; but the rarely used methods of water …

The key scientific issues in the application and development of semiconductor
micro/nanodevices and optoelectronics components have driven scientists to investigate in …

Laser precision engineering is being extensively applied in industries for device
microfabrication due to its unique advantages of being a dry and noncontact process …

Laser beam machining (LBM) has proven its applications and advantages over almost all
the range of engineering materials. It offers its competences from macro-machining to micro …

Femtosecond laser interaction with silicon was investigated in water and in air, with 130-fs
laser pulses at 800 nm wavelength. Under water confinement, higher modification …
