Ultra-short laser interactions with nanoparticles in different media: from electromagnetic to thermal and electrostatic effects
Résumé
Key issues of the controlled synthesis of nanoparticles and nanostructures, as well as laser-particle interactions are considered in the context of the latest applications appearing in many fields such as photonics, medicine, 3D printing, etc. The results of a multi-physics numerical study of laser interaction with nanoparticles will be presented in the presence of several environments. In particular, attention will be paid to the numerical study of laser interactions with heterogeneous materials (eg. colloidal liquids and/or nanoparticles in a dielectric medium) and the aggregation/sintering/fragmentation processes induced by ultra-short laser pulses. © (2017) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).
