This review deals with mechanistic aspects of pulsed laser-induced fabrication of noble metal
nanoparticles. This fabrication method is developed over the past two decades and has attracted much
attention of researchers in various fields including laser chemistry, materials chemistry and
nanobiotechnology. Highlights of this review are advantages and disadvantages inherent to the
fabrication method involving complex processes such as vapor bubble generation under high-intensity
laser irradiation of microscopic metal surfaces, leading to nanoparticle formation.
