Polyynes were formed by laser ablation of a graphite target in deionized water ($H_2O$ and $D_2O$) and various organic solvents such as acetonitrile, n-hexane, and c-hexane and were identified by analyzing ultraviolet (UV) absorption and Raman spectra. We assigned the major UV absorption peaks that coincided with the electronic transitions corresponding to linear polyyne chains. The UV absorption peak intensities of a polyyne solution decreased as the holding temperature of the solution increased. Also, the absorption spectra of polyynes obtained by laser ablation of a graphite target at different volume fractions of $H_2O$ and $D_2O$ were examined.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized by laser (Nd:YAG, ${\lambda}$ = 1064 nm) ablation of a gold target immersed in various aqueous electrolyte solutions (7 mM of LiCl, NaCl, KCl, NaBr, and NaI) as well as in deionized water. The surface plasmon absorption and EDX of AuNPs so produced as well as their TEM images were analyzed to investigate the effects of ambient ions on the growth and aggregation of NPs. The size of AuNPs was reduced by laser ablation in the presence of chloride and bromide ions while it increased drastically when AuNPs were formed in iodide solution. Interestingly, triangular nanoplates were synthesized only in iodide solution. Surface chemistry on AuNPs in various electrolyte solutions was explored to elucidate the role of ions on the size and stability of AuNPs.

Polyynes were prepared by liquid laser ablation of a graphite target in deionized water at various physical conditions such as laser power (20 and 40 mJ/pulse) and ablation wavelengths (355, 532, and 1064 nm). The effects of physical parameters on the linear carbon chain length were examined by analyzing the densities of polyynes with different carbon numbers ($C_6H_2$, $C_8H_2$, and $C_{10}H_2$) as well as their branching ratios. We concluded the photophysical processes turned out to play a more significant role than thermal ones in the formation of polyynes.

In order to explore the effects of the solvent on the formation rate of polyynes, we investigated the absorption spectra of polyynes obtained by laser ablation of a graphite target in different solvents at 1064 nm. Polyynes so produced were confirmed by the Raman band around $2200cm^{-1}$ which corresponds to the carbon triple bonds. The production of polyynes by laser ablation turned out to be significantly affected by the ratio of the hydrogen and carbon atoms in the solvent molecule. No clear correlations were observed in the formation of polyynes for other properties of the solvent such bond dissociation energy, thermal conductivity, and total mass of hydrogen atoms per volume of solvent.

LGP (light guide plate) of LCD-BLU (Liquid Crystal Display - Back Light Unit) is one of the major components which affects the product quality of LCD. In the present study, the optical patterns of LGP(2.2") are manufactured by three different methods, namely, laser ablation, chemical etching and LiGA - reflow, respectively. The pattern surface images and roughness of mold and product were compared to check the optical characteristics. From the results of measurement the optical patterns fabricated by LiGA - reflow method showed the best geometric structure as intended in design and the lowest roughness among those.

Femtosecond laser ablation of ultrathin polymer films on quartz glass using laser pulses of 100 fs and centered at ${\lambda}=400nm$ wavelength has been investigated for nanometer precision thin film patterning. Single-shot ablation craters on films of various thicknesses have been examined by atomic force microscopy, and beam spot diameters and ablation threshold fluences have been determined by square diameter-regression technique. The ablation thresholds of polymer film are about 1.5 times smaller than that of quartz substrate, which results in patterning crater arrays without damaging the substrate. In particular, at a $1/e^2$ laser spot diameter of $0.86{\mu}m$, the smallest craters of 150-nm diameter are fabricated on 15-nm thick film. The ablation thresholds are not influenced by the film thickness, but diameters of the ablated crater are bigger on thicker films than on thinner films. The ablation efficiency is also influenced by the laser beam spot size, following a $w_{0q}{^{-0.45}}$ dependence.
