Abstract
Systems and methods for selectively making non-spherical metal nanoparticles from a metal material. The metal target surface is ablated to create an ejecta event or plume containing nanoparticles moving away from the surface. Ablation may be caused by laser or electrostatic discharge. At least one electromagnetic field is placed in front of the solid target surface being ablated. The electromagnetic field manipulates at least a portion of the nanoparticles as they move away from the target surface through the electromagnetic field to create coral-shaped metal nanoparticles. The distance between the electromagnetic field and metal surface can be adjusted to yield metal nanoparticles of a desired size and/or shape.
