The formation of ZnS, ZnO, Ge, Si and SiGe alloy nanoparticles under laser ablation of solid targets in liquids environment is reported. The use of an Nd:YAG laser allow high rate of nanoparticles formation as a solution. The nanoparticles are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Visible transmission spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The nanoparticles size dependence on both the laser fluence and the nature of the liquid is studied. In some cases, nanoparticles of compounds are formed via reaction of the target whit the liquid.
