| Summary: | The research field of nanomaterials (NMs) has established swiftly over the last several years due to the unique electrical, optical, magnetic and catalytic properties of these materials. Among the various methods currently available for NM synthesis, the techniques for plasma generation in liquids are relatively new. Various types of plasma such as arc discharge and glow discharge may be used for the production of metals, alloys, oxides, inorganic, carbonaceous and composite NMs. Pure metallic and metal alloy nanoparticles (NPs) have been used as catalysis materials, microelectronics, optoelectronics and magnets, as well as conductive pastes, fuel cells and battery electrodes. Plasma technology is currently gaining considerable attention as a prominent ?green" synthesis method for nanomaterials, due to its identifying properties when contrasted to solid, liquid and gas phase synthesis approaches. Plasma technology enables a wide range of academic and industrial applications in the fields of electronics, textiles, automotive and aerospace. In addition, the combination of nanomaterials and plasma in biomedical applications demonstrates a number of synergistic effects and improved treatment efficiency.
