4th Conference on Advanced Nanoparticle Generation and Excitation by Lasers in Liquids (ANGEL)

After decades of intensive nanoresearch, nanoparticles are widely implemented as functional elements on surfaces, into volumes and as nanohybrids, with a wide spectrum of applications such as optics, biomedicine and catalysis or energy science. However, integration of the “nanofunction” into products is still limited due to drawbacks of gas phase and chemical synthesis methods regarding particle aggregation and material variety.

As an alternative synthesis route, nanoparticle generation by lasers in liquids has proven its capability to generate and conjugate totally ligand-free colloidal nanoparticle building blocks. Recent studies highlight unique properties of laser-generated nanoparticles potentially harvested in real-world applications. At the same time, the community discovered novel process routes and describe unique material properties yielded by this exceptional, scalable synthesis method.

ANGEL is the international scientific conference series on Advanced Nanoparticle Generation and Excitation by Lasers in Liquids. The ANGEL Conference series brings the international community together to discuss scientific issues in this context.
