“…Numerous investigations have been performed in order to produce metallic NPs with controlled size and functional properties [8][9][10][11]. Variation of laser ablation parameters [9,12] and chemical properties [13][14][15][16] of surrounding liquid media has been the primary focus of these studies.…”

We investigate the influence of salt, acidic, and basic solutions (citrate, NaOH, and HCl) on the size of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) synthesized by laser ablation in aqueous media. We found that NP size increases from 3 nm to 13 nm when Zeta potential varies from −100 mV to −10 mV whatever the concentration and the nature of chemical solution are namely, citrate, NaOH, and HCl. These results demonstrated that the final size of gold NPs produced by laser ablation in liquid media is mainly governed by the charge-dependent growth mechanism.

“…Pulsed laser ablation in liquids (PLAL) is a recently emerged alternative single step approach enabling sizecontrolled generation of stable nanoparticle colloids [7][8][9][10] with outstanding purity and novel surface chemistry not reproducible by any other conventional manufacturing route. Recently, Sylvestre et al revealed the presence of the oxidation states Au + and Au 3+ besides the metallic Au 0 due to partial oxidation of the nanoparticles in aqueous media [9].…”

In-situ functionalization of gold nanoparticles with fluorophore-tagged oligonucleotides is studied by comparing femtosecond laser ablation in stationary liquid and in biomolecule flow. Femtosecond laser pulses induce significant degradation to sensitive biomolecules when ablating gold in a stationary solution of oligonucleotides. Contrary, in-situ conjugation of nanoparticles in biomolecule flow considerably reduces the degree of degradation studied by gel electrophoresis and UV-Vis spectrometry. Ablating gold with 100 µJ femtosecond laser pulses DNA sequence does not degrade, while the degree of fluorophore tag degradation was 84% in stationary solution compared to 5% for 1 mL/min liquid flow. It is concluded that femtosecond laser-induced degradation of biomolecules is triggered by absorption of nanoparticle conjugates suspended in the colloid and not by ablation of the target. Quenching of nanoparticle size appears from 0.5 µM biomolecule concentration for 0.3 µg/s nanoparticle productivity indicating the successful surface functionalization. Finally, increasing the liquid flow rate from stationary to 450 mL/min enhances nanoparticle productivity from 0.2 µg/s to 1.5 µg/s, as increasing liquid flow allows removal of light absorbing nanoparticles from the ablation zone, avoiding attenuation of subsequent laser photons.C.L.
