DOI: 10.1016/j.apsusc.2017.08.102
Abstract: Abstract We comparatively study the morphological evolutions of silver nanowires under nanosecond-pulsed laser irradiation and thermal treatment in ambient air. While single-crystalline, pure Ag nanospheres could be produced by laser-driven Rayleigh instability, the particles produced… read more here.

DOI: 10.1364/oe.555559
Abstract: Scalable fabrication of high-quality micro/nanoscale spherical-cap structures is significant for applications spanning optical devices, electronics, bio-devices, and sensors. Existing top-down and bottom-up fabrication methods are often constrained by material compatibility, thereby unable to provide the… read more here.
