What are the optical absorption properties of silver nanoparticles on silicon?

In summary, silver nanoparticles on silicon exhibit strong optical absorption properties due to the surface plasmon resonance effect, which is caused by the interaction between the incident light and the free electrons in the metal nanoparticles. This makes silver nanoparticles a promising material for applications in optoelectronic devices, such as solar cells and sensors. The absorption properties can also be tuned by controlling the size, shape, and arrangement of the nanoparticles, allowing for further customization and optimization of their optical properties. Additionally, the high surface area of the nanoparticles allows for increased sensitivity in detecting small changes in the surrounding environment.

hi everyone,
I'm Meriem Zineb, I'm 26 year old, I'm from Algeria. I'm Phd student in physics specialty material technology. i concentrate in my work on the study of silver nanoparticules and their optical absorption properties on silicon.
i have master's degree in materials technology and bachelor's degree in renewable energies.

Hello. I find material engineering quite interesting. I mean, graphene and carbon nanotubes and such. Would you mind describing your work in more detail? I'd love to hear more about it.
