- Abstract
The paper investigates the physicochemical processes that occur during laser-induced breakdown in colloids of gadolinium oxide nanoparticles of different concentrations. A monotonic change in the number of optical breakdowns, the average distance between the nearest breakdowns in the track of a single laser pulse, the average plasma size of a single optical breakdown, the integral luminosity of an optical breakdown plasma flash, the intensity of acoustic signals, and the rate of formation of dissociation products—O2, H2, OH•, and H2O2—is demonstrated. It is shown that the rate of formation of chemical products of the decomposition of H2O molecules under the action of breakdown when using nanoparticles of rare earth metals, in particular, gadolinium oxide, is the highest compared to other materials. Based on one laser pulse, the rates of formation of chemical products formed during the dissociation of water during laser-induced breakdown of a colloid of gadolinium oxide nanoparticles are 13.13 nmol/pulse for H2, 5.41 nmol/pulse for O2, and 6.98 nmol/pulse for hydrogen peroxide.
