Computer simulation of polarizability and absorption cross-section of metal (Ag, Au, Cu and Na) nanoparticles in glass far from plasmon resonance, in spectral range of 1-1.6 μm was performed. Using the example of Ag nanoparticles it is shown that in telecommunication spectral range absorption cross-section decreases by 103 times, in comparison with plasmon resonance spectral range. At the same time the polarizability decreases only by 10 times. The comparison of nanoparticles polarizabilities for mentioned materials and different geometries was performed. The prospect of metal nanoparticles application for electro-optic glasses development is shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
