Nanotechnology is defined as the “the designing, fabricating and characterization, production and application of structures, devices and systems by controlling shape and size at the nanoscale”. Over the past three decades, nanotechnology has grown as a promising field to resolve the technological issues prevalent in various branches of science and technology. Further nanotechnology research has focused on understanding the correlation between the roles of different physical parameters the optical, electrical, and magnetic properties of nanomaterials with respect to their size, shape, and geometries. There have been several experimental reports on the optical properties of metal nanoparticles, including gold nanospheres, nanorods and nanoprisms, silver nanospheres, nanowires, and nanoprisms, copper nanospheres, aluminum nanospheres, bimetallic nanoparticles composite nanoparticles with a core-shell structure and nanoparticle chains and assemblies [1] . Manipulation of physico-chemical parameters viz. temperature, pH concentrations, and light has been a very interesting aspect of nanoparticle synthesis and heir significant effect on the shapes and sizes of the nanoparticles [2] . There are methods of synthesis of size and shape controlled nanoparticles by Laser ablation techniques [3] , but in the current study the synthesized Gold nanoparticles are being exposed to different wavelengths and colors of Laser. This alteration plays a tremendous role in the formation of different geometries of Gold nanoparticles. Further their role in the efficacies against the selected mosquito species was also explored, which exhibited different efficacies for different geometries of nanoparticles. Optical properties of gold nanoparticles can thus be readily tuned by varying their size and shape by using their external physical parameters [1] . In the present investigation we are exploiting the selected wavelengths of Laser lights and the effect induced on the shapes of Gold nanoparticles was observed.

UV-Vis Analysis

For the characterization of the of the synthesized Gold nanoparticles was confirmed by sampling the reaction mixture at regular intervals and the absorption maxima was scanned by UV-Vis spectra, at the wavelength of 200 - 800 nm in UV-3600 Shimadzu spectrophotometer at 1 nm resolution Wavelength of peak absorbance, λmax was noted and the fwhm (full width at half-maximum) was calculated according to Herlekar et al. [5] AuNPs were then precipitated by the centrifuge at the bottom of the flask after the nanoparticles were reduced. This precipitate was then washed out with double distilled water and then further analyzed by transmission electron microscope. The samples of AuNPs synthesized were placed in a drop of reaction mixture on a copper grid and then allowed the mixture to get evaporated.

The UV-Vis spectra of the Gold nanoparticles show difference in the peak picks for different beams of LASER. In Figure 1 the peak pick can be seen at 340 nm of wavelength for 0.932 Absorbance Units, in Figure 2 the peak pick is at 329.5 nm for 0.924 Absorbance Units. For White light exposure there were multiple peaks as illustrated in the graph, highest peak was observed at 310 nm for 0.994 Absorption Units and at 410 nm (Figure 3). In Figure 4 for the no exposure of light the peaks were noisy with Absorption maxima at 406 nm. The difference in Absorption maxima depicts the change in the kinetics of the formation of Gold Nanoparticles which can be explored further.

Effect of wavelengths and colors of LASER on the geometries of Gold nanoparticles (TEM analysis)

In the present study 3 LASER of selected wavelengths and colors are used with the wavelengths (280 nm, 320 nm, 560 nm) respectively with the colors (green, red and white) and one dark box without light as control.

1) Green Light (280 nm): The AuNPs formed after the exposure of green light were found to be spherical in shape with well defined crystalline lattices (Figure 5(a)).

2) Red Light (320 nm): The AuNPs formed after the exposure of red light

were found to be rectangular in shapes (Figure 5(b)).

3) White Light (560 nm): The AuNPs formed after the exposure of white light were found to be globular in shape (Figure 5(c)).

4) In the dark box: The nanoparticles which were kept under the dark after characterisation were observed to be of irregular shapes and geometries (Figure 5(d)).

The efficacy of the synthesized AuNPs (synthesized under different LASER beams) was tested against the larvae of Culex quinquefasciatus. The larvae treated with the Nanoparticles synthesized under the Green LASER beams were found to be highly susceptible. The green light has shown 100% of mortality after 24 hours of exposure to the light. Efficacies under different lights after 24 hours of exposure were obtained (Table 1).

As the field of nanotechnology evolved, it is becoming clear that the particle shape is as important as size in determining the chemical and physical properties of a particular nanostructure [6] . This is especially found true for noble metal nanoparticles, where the plasmonic and catalytic properties can be finely tuned through control over their morphological properties play an important role in the formation of the shapes and geometries have studied the role of physical and chemical parameters like temperature, pH and have shown their role of spherical nanosilver and AuNPs for mosquito control [7] . Also they have used green methods for controlling mosquitoes by manipulating concentrations and time. Even they could be an effective adulticide which clearly show strong potential of these nanoparticles in controlling mosquito larvae adults of various species [8] . However their geometries can be exploited using nanoparticles have neither been experimented nor been exploited for mosquito control. With the advancement in the studies it has been seen that the physical parameters also play a very prominent role in the manipulation of the shapes and geometries of the nanoparticles [9] . Further the effect of controlled pulsed Laser can be investigated with their plasmonic resnonance properties over the formation of the nanoparticles. In a significant study a method has been proposed for the fabrication of a well defined size and shape distribution of Silver Nanoparticles, here they have directly employed the LASER irradiation method [10] whereas in the present paper we are using LASER pointers of specific wavelength. In a very significant study the nanoparticles production changes only with the laser parameters. and it was found out that the number of nanoparticles changes with the laser irradiation [11] . In recent days Laser ablation has emerged as the recent technique of synthesis of nanoparticles of selected shapes and geometries.

Physical parameters have played a very significant role in the change of the geometries of the nanoparticles. Light being an important parameter has also exhibited considerable change in the geometries. Effect of LASER on the shapes of Gold nanoparticles has been studied and it showed potential results. The femtosecond laser ablation of a gold target in aqueous solutions has been used to produce colloidal Au nanoparticles with controlled surface chemistry. A detailed chemical analysis showed that the nanoparticles formed were partially oxidized by the oxygen present in solution [12] . New method was being proposed for the fabrication of a well defined size and shape distribution of silver nanoparticles, this method employs direct laser irradiation, where as in our study we are directly exposing the solution to the laser beams and also with different colors of LASER changing geometries which is significant. A novel method for remote release of an encapsulated material from polyelectrolyte capsules is based on laser light illumination [13] . Applications of LASER induced beams in synthesis of nanoparticles have wide applications in biomedical field as well.

Presently in this work we have initiated the role of LASERS in initiating geometries which can be experimented further. In the present study we were able to experiment on the formation of AuNPs of specific geometrical shapes with the exposure of different LASER beams of selected wavelengths and colors. The light with specific wavelength (280 nm) and green color showed the formation of the spherical nanoparticles with size between 100 to 120 nm. Light with wavelength (320 nm) red color exhibited the rectangular shaped nanoparticles of relatively smaller size. Light with wavelength (560 nm) showed slightly globular geometries with particle size ranging between 50 nm to 60 nm. It was interesting to observe that the reaction mixture when kept inside black box (with no exposure to light) lead to the formation of irregularly shaped nanoparticles. The study provides desideration for further research and the application of newly derived geometries to have their utilization in disease control, drug testing and even as drug delivery.

We, therefore here would like to conclude that LASER beams with different wavelength and color could play a significant role in shaping geometries of AuNPs under synthesis and can be used for controlling Culex quiquefasciatus as shown in observations.
