I am using laser ablation method to prepare tin and tin oxide nanoparticles. I have varied liquid media and laser energy. For de-ionized water I have observe a decrease in tin oxide ratio with an increase in tin ratio by increasing laser energy...But for acetone, ethanol and methanol its opposite is observed. For other media's it can be due to threshold fluence above which the laser interact more with liquid ..can the same reason valid for de-ionized water???
