Abstract
V/m in deionized water via a new synthetic design protocol called electric-field-assisted pulsed laser ablation in liquids (EFA-PLAL). The morphology of the nanostructures can also be tuned from a sphere of ∼20 nm to an elongated leaf of ∼3 μm by controlling the intensity of the applied electric field. Futuristically, the materials chemistry occurring during the EFA-PLAL synthesis protocol developed here can be leveraged to design various strongly correlated nanomaterials and heterostructures of other 3d transition-metal oxides.
