Pulsed Laser Induced Nanostructures in Liquids for Energy and Environmental Applications covers fundamental insights on the mechanism of pulsed laser techniques by considering various experimental conditions to accelerate hypotheses that are appropriate for the production of efficient nanomaterials. In this book, readers will learn about the major advancements in the field of pulsed laser technologies during the past decades, current applications, and future impacts of pulsed laser technologies.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of nanostructured catalytic materials via pulsed laser techniques, their use as energy, environment-related applications and their present trend in the industry and market. It also highlights the latest advances related to the application of these nanostructured materials produced via pulsed laser in liquid techniques in various energy (supercapacitor, batteries, and hydrogen production) and environmental remediation (wastewater treatment and conversion of waste into value-added product) processes. Recent progress on several kinds of both photo and electroactive nanomaterials is reviewed, and essential aspects which govern catalytic behaviors, and the corresponding stability, are discussed.
