Abstract:
Over the past few years, a little word with big potential has been rapidly entering into the world's consciousness-'nano'. Nanoscience and technology is a multidisciplinary field, involving the fabrication and understanding of matter at the finest level of a few nanomters.This thesis is about the synthesis and laser induced studies of nanosized ZnO,a versatile material with a wide range of applications.After synthesizing colloids and films of nano ZnO,the samples are studied using different optical methods.Interactions of intense laser beams with nanosized particles are found to open up many interesting scenarios with possible applications in the field of photonics.
