By using the laser printing technique, for the first time we fabricate spherical nanoparticles of germanium-antimony-telluride alloy possessing a high refractive index and amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition. The nanoparticles are examined by means of optical dark field micro-spectroscopy, which shows scatterers with different colours (with different optical resonances). The direct measurements of their diameters by using the transmission electron microscopy reveal that the nanoparticles' colours are related to different sizes of the nanoparticles. While most of nanoparticles are homogeneous, our study shows that some fabricated particles have a core-shell structure.
