I would to obtaine the mental nanoparticlesWhat are the suitable liquid to immersed the cuo or cu2o to production cu-nanoparticles by mean of laser ablation?

You can used the distilled water,it is appeared with nano solution, uncolored, and clear.If you increase the energy or no, of pulses of laser, the color of solution will be more clear. the grain size of Cu nanoparticle is smaller.
All what has said above is right. There have been many literatures which reported that distilled water is the suitable solvent for synthesis of the cupper nanoparticles using pulsed laser ablation .
Distilled water might be suitable. you can stop the growth of NP by pH change. This is a very important step. it must be followed by capping NP to avoid aggregation of NPs.
