Structure and Properties of titanium dioxide nanoparticles obtained by pulsed laser ablation in water Introduction Pulsed laser ablation in liquid is a simple technique for nanomaterial fabrication. This technique possesses some flexibility in controlling the properties of nanoparticles by appropriate choice of both laser and nature of the liquid [1]. Nanoparticles of the oxides of titanium have been created by laser ablation of a titanium target in various liquid enviroments such as water, ethanol, 2-propanol and n-hexane [2]. These nanoparticles (usually TiO2) have been extensively studied for their high photocatalytic activities, chemical stability and a variety of applications [3]. Also, amorphous titanium oxide nanoparticles are only under intensive investigations for recent years by both of experiment and computer simulation [4]. The physical and chemical properties of TiO2 nanoparticles are highly correlated with its phase structure and morphology as well as its particle size [5
