Laser Controlled Engineering of Nanomaterial Fluorescence (IMAGE)
Caption
Representative laser operations and application outcomes from laser induced fluorescence functionalization of nanomaterials. Schematic abstract of review layout. Left. Representative laser techniques discussed in the review, comprising laser driven synthesis of nanostructures from thermal ablation of precursors in solutions, laser direct writing through laser initiated redox or combustion at nanomaterial surface, and spatial patterning of nanomaterials through optical gradient and radiation forces at the laser beam waist. Right. Corresponding outcomes from the various laser processes, including the formation of diverse range of fluorescent nanomaterials with refined control in composition and dimensions, and spatially refined surface modifications that result in superior color tunability and micropatterning.
