    Dear Zia Naqvi,
    There are a lot of different synthesis approaches applicable to inorganic
    nanoparticles.
    In our research group, recently, we introduced a general nonaqueous method
    for the synthesis of many oxidic nanoparticles. It is what we call the
    benzyl alcohol route. Under the same conditions it is possible to
    synthesize perovskites (BaTiO3, SrTiO3, BaZrO3,...), conducting oxides
    (SnO2, In2O3,...) and many other like: TiO2, V2O3, ZrO2, Nb2O5, Ta2O5, HfO2...

    Futhermore the yeld is nearly 100% and large quantities are easily
    obtainable.

    If you are interested in this approach you can visit our website
    http://nanodesigners.net
    or reading the following articles:
