Abstract

Since the initial exploration of synthesis possibilities at a liquid–solid interface through pulsed laser irradiation of iron in water, the pulsed laser ablation in liquid media (PLAL) process has garnered significant attention for constructing various nanostructures due to its simple, ultrafast, and clean methodology that avoids byproduct formation. Recent advances in functionalized heterostructures via the PLAL process suggest a broad range of applications for energy- conversion systems, including water splitting and energy harvesting. This review surveys recent advancements in PLAL for energy applications, with a specific focus on its applications in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts and energy harvesting devices. The review discusses the synthesis mechanisms, advantages, challenges, and future research directions of PLAL, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of its potential and limitations.

期刊介绍： The journal offers a common reference and publication source for workers engaged in research on the experimental and theoretical aspects of crystal growth and its applications, e.g. in devices. Experimental and theoretical contributions are published in the following fields: theory of nucleation and growth, molecular kinetics and transport phenomena, crystallization in viscous media such as polymers and glasses; crystal growth of metals, minerals, semiconductors, superconductors, magnetics, inorganic, organic and biological substances in bulk or as thin films; molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, growth of III-V and II-VI and other semiconductors; characterization of single crystals by physical and chemical methods; apparatus, instrumentation and techniques for crystal growth, and purification methods; multilayer heterostructures and their characterisation with an emphasis on crystal growth and epitaxial aspects of electronic materials. A special feature of the journal is the periodic inclusion of proceedings of symposia and conferences on relevant aspects of crystal growth.
