Effect of Laser Energy on Optical and Morphological Properties of Gold Nanoparticles

Noble metals gold NPs are produced by pulsed (“Q-switched, 1064 nm Nd: YAG”) ablation of gold foil dipped in doubles distilled water DDW by laser. (PLAL) the process was performed with laser energy in range (400–700) mJ at (90 pulses, wavelength 1064 and room temperature and liquid depth 9 mm. The influence of laser energies have been tested structurally, optically and morphologically and examined by using scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV-visible spectroscopy and atomic force microscope (AFM). The absorption spectra of AuNPs are prepared in water piercing and solitary peaks nearby 518 and 524 nm, demonstrating the assembly of clean and sphericals in shape AuNPs with the middling size in the range of (20–50) nm. SEM and AFM have established all the measurements of size.
