SYNTHESIS OF THE NANOCLUSTERS OF ZINC AND COPPER OXIDES FROM SOLUTIONS OF ORTHOPHOSPHATES ON LASER ABLATION OF POROUS SAMPLES

Abstract

Spectroscopic studies of the surface laser plasma formed close to the porous body containing nanoquantities of different zinc and copper salts subjected to the effect of double laser pulses were performed. The possibility to develop the methods for the production of metal oxide nanoclusters was demonstrated. The quantity and the composition of metal oxide clusters could be varied depending on the concentration of the starting metals in the solutions used.
