Recently, the urgency of combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens has dramatically increased. With the development of nanotechnology, significant hopes are placed on nanoparticles with antimicrobial properties. The efficiency of such materials can be significantly enhanced through light-activated processes. In this study, we prepared composite ZnO-Ag nanoparticles and tested their ability to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The composite ZnO-Ag nanoparticles were fabricated using pulsed laser ablation of Zn and Ag targets in water using a nanosecond pulsed laser. During antibacterial tests, light-enhanced activation of the nanoparticles was achieved using low-power near UV (375 nm) and blue visible (410 nm) LED irradiation. For comparison, similar laser-fabricated ZnO nanoparticles were also tested. The combined use of nanoparticles and LED irradiation significantly increased the generation of reactive oxygen species. As a result, low nanoparticle concentrations (0.05 g/L) and low-power LED irradiation (0.17-0.22 W) significantly reduced the concentration of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, including experiments with visible light irradiation. Compared to their ZnO counterparts, the use of ZnO-Ag composite particles led to an additional increase in antimicrobial activity.

Purposeful synthesis of bismuth oxide nanoparticles (NPs) of various crystal modifications is important for biomedicine, photocatalysis and other applications. In this work, pulsed laser ablation of a metallic Bi target in atmospheric air is used to obtain (3- Bi 2 O 3 NPs. The effect of the Nd:YAG laser radiation power density (1064 nm, 7 ns) in the range of 0.1-1.2 GW/cm2 2 on the features of formation of NPs under nonequilibrium conditions is studied, for which the spectra of laser-induced plasma are recorded and analyzed, the plasma composition is determined, and the temperature of the plasma plume is estimated. The NPs are comprehensively characterized using TEM, XRD, FTIR, Raman, and UV-Vis spectroscopies, and electrophoretic light scattering, which make it possible to determine their morphology, crystal structure, chemical composition, and optical properties. The photocatalytic activity of the resulting nanopowders in the Rhodamine B dye decomposition reaction is assessed.
