We propose a convenient technique applicable for investigations of various functions of nanoparticles produced by laser ablation in liquids. It was demonstrated that nanoparticles of anatase-TiO2, a electrode material for lithium secondary batteries, produced by laser ablation in acetone could be efficiently deposited on a substrate by using an electrophoresis technique. Analysis of the electrochemical properties of nanoparticles become much more facile with those deposited nanoparticles than with dispersed nanoparticles. In addition, it was demonstrated that comparison of the electrochemical properties between nanoparticles and microparticles were possible by means of this technique. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
