Table 1 NP size: correlation with photoprocess efficiency

From: Laser-induced growth of nanocrystals embedded in porous materials

Compound	Mean NP size (nm) CW	Mean NP size (nm) ns	Mean NP size (nm) fs
Ag	10 to 20, ME
CdS	4 to 8, HE	3 to 8^a, LE	2 to 3, LE
Au	5 to 15, HE		20, HE
PbS	8 to 11, HE		4 to 8, HE

^aAccording to [24]: pore size, 7 nm, precursors Cd nitrate + ammonium thiocyanate.
HE, high efficiency; ME, moderate efficiency; LE, low efficiency.
