Abstract
We report crater formation due to interaction of the high power laser pulse with the brass and aluminum in water and air ambient. The deposited nanostructures on brass near and away from the crater periphery are distinctly different with larger particle size (â¼3.5 μm) and broader particle size distribution with full width half maximum (FWHM) â¼2.9 μm close to the crater compared to relatively smaller particle size (â¼2.5 μm) and narrower size distribution (FWHM â¼1.7 μm) near the periphery of the crater in air ambient. The morphology of brass in water ambient shows nanosize particles (â¼55 nm) and narrow distribution (FWHM â¼7.5 nm) away from the crater with nanorod shaped structures at crater periphery.
