IntroductionPulsed laser ablation (PLA) of solids is a very promising functional, powerful, and clean method for nanoparticle production [1]. NPs with controlled sizes, shapes, and concentrations can be obtained using PLA. PLA in liquid (PLAL) method becomes a facile and clean (free of contaminats) method to produce NPs [2] because this method can easily be used to produce NPs in a reservoir of ultrapure water, water surfactant mixtures or some other liquid materials [3]. Metallic NPs may have very broad area of applications as such copper [4] and silver [5] could be used as an antibacterial potency against E. coli. Especially, gold NPs were extensively used in very broad application area including catalysis, nanotechnology [6], cancer diagnostics [7], and biological applications [8]. Also, Au NPs are widely used in thin film applications [9,10] and in nonvolatile memory devices [11].In recent years, rhenium nanoparticles (NPs) have been used in several applications such as a tumour treating therapies and coating (plastics, metals, textiles) technologies as well as magnetic rhenium NPs, which have been used as a contrast agent and are produced by using chemical or physical methods. Rhenium containing NPs have been studied and reported for catalytic and sensor applications in literature [12,13]; platinum monolayer on iridium/rhenium alloy nanoparticles [14] may function as a core part of some core-shell structures for the oxygen reaction, rhenium-containing Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) structures [15] as catalysts and ReO 3 @ SiO 2 , ReO 3 @ Ag, ReO 3 @ Au NPs for sensor applications [16]. There are a few methods reported in the literature for production of Re NPs, which are pulsed laser decomposition [17], reduction of some organometallic complexes [18] or colloidal and microemulsion synthesis in liquid environment [19], but, due to the author's knowledge, no study has yet been reported in the literature about the use of the fsPLAL method for production of Re NPs as well as ReO 3 . Rhenium-containing alloys and coatings have been used for high-temperature applications, while Re NPs have also been used to connect parts at lower temperatures [20], which reduces the melting point of alloys. In a recent study, amorphous Re x O y NPs were produced in tunable particle sizes
