Hi All:

We are working on nanomaterials fabrication though laser irradiation
of solids submerged in liquids. The technique includes a small
aquarium partially filled with some liquid (ethanol, water, oil,...)
containing a piece to be exposed. When our high-power, high-repetition
rate green laser strikes at the solid surface many nanodropets are
captured by the liquid thus giving a colloidal substance. Initial
results in some materials indicates the particles had between 10-500
nm size.
We are now looking for advice for what kind of materials could be
manufactured for a specific application.

Suggestions or collaboration please....

That's a great discovery you made! Vulvox Nano/Biotechnology Corportion is seeking a source of silicon nanoparticles and other metal nanoparticles. Call me at 516-921-5058 or contact me at protologics@worldnet.att.net.
We are very interested in a collaboration with you or your company. What yield of material do you get? What materials have you made with your method? We want a cheap souce of silicon nanoparticles.
