Abstract
We investigate the productivity of ultra-small gold nanoparticles generated by pulsed-laser ablation in liquid of a high-speed rotating gold target as functions of laser ablation time and rotation speed of the target in the range 90–3000 rpm. These experiments were performed by in situ monitoring the extinction spectra of the gold colloidal suspension. The time evolution of the gold volume fraction in the colloidal suspension of the target was determined by modeling the extinction spectra using the shape distribution effective medium theory. The time dependence of the ablation rate, deduced from that of the volume fraction, shows an initial exponential decay followed by a steady-state value at longer ablation time. The influence of the laser-induced roughening of the target surface on the time evolution of the ablation rate is clearly demonstrated. The experimental results also reveal the dependence of the time evolution of the ablation rate of the target on its rotation speed. The effect of the liquid flow on the ablation rate of the target is analyzed and discussed.
