Characterization and Evaluation of the Antimicrobial Activity of CuO Nanoparticles Prepared by Pulse Laser Ablation in Double-Distilled Water
209–227 (2024)

PACS numbers: 78.40.-q, 79.20.Eb, 87.64.Cc, 87.64.Ee, 87.19.xb, 87.50.W-, 87.85.Rs

In the current research, Q-switched Nd:YAG-laser ablation is used to create the copper-oxide nanoparticles (NPs). A disc-shaped copper target is subjected to the ablation procedure, while it is submerged in double-distilled water. The ablation is carried out with pulse counts ranging from 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 with two different energy levels, namely, 200 mJ and 400 mJ. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), and UV-vis spectrophotometry are used to determine the morphological and optical properties of nanoparticles. An increase in the absorbance spectrum with an increase in the number of pulses indicates an increase in the concentration of copper-oxide nanoparticles. The peaks of surface-plasmon resonance at 217 nm are seen in the absorption spectra as the laser pulses increased. A slight reduction in the optical band gap is occurred too. CuO-NPs’ formation is verified by XRD analysis, which also reveals that the copper-oxide NPs’ structure is a monoclinic lattice. Further, the results of the TEM and UV-vis analyses show that there are presented CuO nanoparticles. CuO nanoparticles, which are nearly spherical, are found, according to the findings of the TEM and UV-vis analyses. When 200 mJ and 400 mJ of energy are used, it is discovered that the average diameters of these nanoparticles are of about 46 nm and 52 nm, respectively. Additionally, our study results show that CuO NPs at 200 mJ are more effective for inhibiting S. aureus and E. coli than they are at 400 mJ with the same number of pulses
