Abstract

The development of laser-induced incandescence (LII) approach for characterizing the production of high-purity non-carbonaceous metal oxides produced in flame synthesis systems is in progress. This work aims to prove the feasibility of LII measurement for titanium dioxide (TiO\(_2\)). In previous works, laser-induced emission (LIE) was investigated for flame-synthetized TiO\(_2\) particles. However, the presence of carbon materials was detected. As this calls into question the nature of the signal, we consider in this work LIE of high-purity engineered TiO\(_2\) nanoparticles to circumvent the carbon issue. Specifically, we investigate the spectral and temporal laser-induced emissions of pure TiO\(_2\) nanoparticles dispersed in a non-reactive environment. In parallel, LIE from carbon black is examined to validate the strategy and highlight differences between carbon black and TiO\(_2\). The TiO\(_2\) results indicate that depending on the laser fluence, different prompt interferences appear. The literature suggests that these non-thermal emissions are likely to be from fluorescence or phase-selective laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy, both characterized by a short lifetime. To avoid these parasitic signals, measurement acquisition time is delayed. A spectral red-shift is observed with time as a result of decreasing particle temperature. This proves the LII nature of delayed emission from pure TiO\(_2\), which is confirmed by the LII-like nature of the temporal signals.

Notes

  1. Assuming \(d_{\text {p}}(t)\) to be constant means that sublimation is negligible during the duration of the LII process.
