In the present article, antimony sulfide nanoparticles have been synthesized by pulsed laser ablation of an antimony sulfide pellet in distilled water and isopropyl alcohol. The target was irradiated by 1064 and 532 nm from a pulsed Nd:YAG laser operated at 10 Hz and pulse width of 10 ns at room temperature. Analysis of the morphology, crystalline phase and elemental composition were done using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The optical band gap energies of these colloidal nanoparticles were evaluated from UV-Visible absorption spectra. It was observed that the morphology, size, and optical properties of the antimony sulfide nanoparticles depend on the wavelength of the laser and the liquid media.
