Abstract
This work presents the first quantitative analysis of time-resolved laser-induced incandescence (TiRe-LII) measurements on aerosolized nickel nanoparticles in several gases and over a range of laser fluences. A measurement model composed of spectroscopic and heat transfer submodels is used to recover the particle size distribution parameters and the thermal accommodation coefficient (TAC). A qualitative analysis of the results reveals evidence of nonincandescent laser-induced emission temporally aligned with the laser pulse, and more laser energy is absorbed than can be accounted for from the modeled spectral absorption cross section of the nanoparticles. The TiRe-LII inferred particle size parameters were generally consistent with values found from ex situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. The TACs for nickel nanoparticles in polyatomic gases were larger than those in monoatomic gases, which may indicate chemisorption.
