A major step towards the understanding of intrinsic properties of nano-objects depends on the ability to obtain assemblies of nanoparticles of a given size with reduced size dispersion and a well defined shape. The control of these parameters is a fundamental challenge. In this newsletter, we present a new method to tailor in an easy way both size and shape characteristics of nanoparticles by using laser irradiation in the nanosecond regime.

The mechanism of transverse radiation viscosity for nanospheres moving in laser field is analyzed. It is demonstrated that in the process of light scattering by these particles besides the force Fs accelerating them in the direction of radiation prop
agation and the gradient force Fg that is due to the spatial inhomogeneity of the light field, there are forces Fvisc that slow down the movement of particles in the transverse directions. These light viscosity forces are due to the Doppler shift in frequency of scattered radiation. The general expressions for these forces acting on particles that scatter radiation in the Rayleigh regime are derived and applied to estimate their effect on levitated nanospheres and also on slow electrons moving in the laser and magnetic fields. The possible experiments for observation the effects of light viscosity is discussed.
The ionization dynamics of helium droplets in a wide size range from 220 to 10^6 He atoms irradiated with intense femtosecond extreme ultraviolet (XUV) pulses of 10^9 {div} 10^{12} W/cm2 power density is investigated in detail by photoelectron spectr
oscopy. Helium droplets are resonantly excited in the photon energy range from ~ 21 eV (corresponding to the atomic 1s2s state) up to the atomic ionization potential (IP) at ~ 25 eV. A complex evolution of the electron spectra as a function of droplet size and XUV intensity is observed, ranging from atomic-like narrow peaks due to binary autoionization, to an unstructured feature characteristic of electron emission from a nanoplasma. The experimental results are analyzed and interpreted with the help of numerical simulations based on rate equations taking into account various processes such as multi-step ionization, interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD), secondary inelastic collisions, desorption of electronically excited atoms, collective autoionization (CAI) and further relaxation processes.
We present a proof-of-principle study of superconducting single photon detectors (SSPD) for the detection of individual neutral molecules/nanoparticles at low energies. The new detector is applied to characterize a laser desorption source for biomole
cules and it allows to retrieve the arrival time distribution of a pulsed molecular beam containing the amino acid tryptophan, the polypeptide gramicidin as well as insulin, myoglobin and hemoglobin. We discuss the experimental evidence that the detector is actually sensitive to isolated neutral particles.
Ultrafast X-ray imaging provides high resolution information on individual fragile specimens such as aerosols, metastable particles, superfluid quantum systems and live biospecimen, which is inaccessible with conventional imaging techniques. Coherent
X-ray diffractive imaging, however, suffers from intrinsic loss of phase, and therefore structure recovery is often complicated and not always uniquely-defined. Here, we introduce the method of in-flight holography, where we use nanoclusters as reference X-ray scatterers in order to encode relative phase information into diffraction patterns of a virus. The resulting hologram contains an unambiguous three-dimensional map of a virus and two nanoclusters with the highest lat- eral resolution so far achieved via single shot X-ray holography. Our approach unlocks the benefits of holography for ultrafast X-ray imaging of nanoscale, non-periodic systems and paves the way to direct observation of complex electron dynamics down to the attosecond time scale.
Versatile quantum modes emerge for plasmon describing the collective oscillations of free electrons in metallic nanoparticles when the particle sizes are greatly reduced. Rather than traditional nanoscale study, the understanding of quantum plasmon d
esires extremal atomic control of the nanoparticles, calling for size dependent plasmon measurement over a series of nanoparticles with atomically adjustable atom number over several orders of magnitude. Here we report the N dependent plasmonic evolution of atomically size selected gold particles with N= 100 70000 using electron energy loss (EEL) spectroscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope. The EEL mapping assigns a feature at 2.7 eV as the bulk plasmon and another at 2.4 eV as surface plasmon, which evolution reveals three regimes. When N decreases from 70000 to 887, the bulk plasmon stays unchanged while the surface plasmon exhibits a slight red shift from 2.4 to 2.3 eV. It can be understood by the dominance of classical plasmon physics and electron boundary scattering induced retardation. When N further decreases from 887 to 300, the bulk plasmon disappears totally and the surface plasmon shows a steady blueshift, which indicates that the quantum confinement emerges and modifies the intraband transition. When N 100 300, the plasmon is split to three fine features, which is attributed to superimposed single electron transitions between the quantized molecular like energy level by the time dependent density functional theory calculations. The surface plasmons excitation ratio has a scaling law with an exponential dependence on N ( N^0.669), essentially the square of the radius. A unified evolution picture from the classical to quantum, molecular plasmon is thus demonstrated.
