In this work, the morphology, structural and optical properties of a composite material based on gold nanoparticles and a thin film of amorphous non-stoichiometric silicon oxide (a-SiOx, x = 1.8) were studied for the first time. Based on the results obtained, it was experimentally shown that the a-SiO1.8 layer conformally covered the spherical nanoparticles. An analytical model based on the Mie theory well described the optical properties of the gold nanoparticles and the composite material in the ultraviolet region of the spectrum obtained from the experiment, as well as the change in the amplitude of the plasmon peak that occurs during the formation of the composite material.

In this paper, the deposition and optical properties of charge-stabilized gold nanoparticles on silicon oxide substrates is studied, which have been derivatised with (aminopropyl) triemethoxysilane. Monodispersed charged-stabilized colloidal gold nanoparticles with diameters between 20-150 nm were prepared and their self-assembly and optical properties on silica substrates is studied. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is employed to investigate the nanoparticle monolayers ex situ. Analysis of AFM images provide evidence that the formation of the colloidal nanoparticle monolayers is governed by random sequential adsorption. The results indicate that the ionic strength of the suspension influences the spatial distribution of the nanoparticles. For all sizes of the Au nanoparticles tested, optical simulations of extinction coefficients made by finite-difference time domain (FDTD) indicate a resonance peak in the range of 510-600 nm wavelength of the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. The results indicate a simple and inexpensive approach of assembly of plasmonic nanostructures that can find applications in metamaterials and light waveguides.

We have developed an analytical method to describe the optical properties of nanoparticles, whose results are in agreement with the observed experimental behavior according to the size of the nanoparticle under analysis. Our considerations to describe plasmonic absorption and dispersion are based on the combination of the two-level molecular system and the two-dimensional quantum box models. Employing the optical stochastic Bloch equations, we have determined the system's coherence, from which we have calculated expressions for the absorption coefficient and refractive index. The innovation of this methodology is that it allows us to take into account the solvent environment, which induce quantum effects not considered by classical treatments.

ABSTRACTWe report simulation of optical properties of hybrid geometry comprised of multilayer graphene shell encapsulated gold nanoparticles loaded with carbon nanotubes. The discrete dipole approximation (DDA) method was employed. The results indicated that the optical properties of encapsulated gold nanoparticles were not suppressed by the carbon material coating. Furthermore, low scattering effects were also observed. The simulation method helped visualize the near-surface normalized electric field, which is directly related to the intensity of hot spots on the surface of these hybrid nanoarchitectures.
