Abstract
Laser Spinning is a new technique to produce ultralong nanofibers with tailored chemical compositions. In this method, a high power laser is employed to melt a small volume of the precursor material at high temperatures. At the same time, a supersonic gas jet is injected on this molten volume producing its rapid cooling and elongation by viscous friction with the high speed gas flow, hence forming the amorphous nanofibers. This paper collects the main results obtained since the introduction of this technique in 2007.
