Abstract:

In this work, thermo-optical properties of gold nanoparticle colloids are studied using continuous wave (CW) laser irradiation at 532 nm. The nanoparticle colloids are fabricated by 18 ns pulsed laser ablation of pure gold plate in the distilled water. The formation of the nanoparticles has been evidenced by optical absorption spectra and transmission electron microscopy. The nonlinear optical properties of gold nanoparticles colloids are investigated by closed Z-scan under irradiation of a low power CW laser. It will be shown that the thermal lens model is in excellent agreement with the experimental results of samples. The aperture-limitted optical limiters based on the nonlinear refraction of colloidal solution are presented. The tunability of limiting threshold of optical limiters can be accomplished by engineering of the experimental geometry.

Observation of nanoscale cooling effects by substrates and the surrounding media for single gold nanoparticles under CW-laser illumination.

Understanding the nanoscale heating-induced local thermal response is important but hampered by lack of information on temperatures at such small scales. This paper reports laser-induced heating and thermal equilibration of metal nanoparticles supported on different substrates and immersed in several media. We use single-particle spectroscopy to monitor nanoparticle temperature rises due to las...

LINEAR AND NONLINEAR OPTICAL RESPONSE OF Au AND Pt NANOPARTICLE SUSPENSIONS UNDER A LOW POWER LASER IRRADIATION AT 1064 nm

In this work, nonlinear refraction properties of gold (Au) and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles dispersed in the water are reported. The thermally induced effective nonlinear refractive index due to nonlocal heat effect is characterized by Zscan technique with a low power continuous wave (CW) laser at 1064 nm. This allows us to measure thermo-optic coefficient and effective nonlinear refractive inde...
