Tunable Piezophotonic Effect on Core-Shell Nanoparticles Prepared by Laser Ablation in Liquids under External Voltage

We report an experimental study on the piezophotonic effect of gold and lead zirconate titanate (PbZrTiO3) nanoparticles (NPs) and also their core-shell nanostructures prepared by the laser ablation in liquid method. To obtain these NPs and composite materials, the targets were immersed in deionized...
