研究目的
To prepare and characterize nanocomposites of gold nanorods and ormosil gel glass for optical limiting applications, preserving the optical limiting property of gold nanorods with enhanced thermostability.
研究成果
The nanocomposites preserve the optical limiting property of gold nanorods with enhanced thermostability due to the ormosil gel glass matrix, making them promising for optical limiters against tunable lasers. Future work could optimize dispersion to reduce aggregation and improve damage thresholds.
研究不足
The study notes partial aggregation of gold nanorods in the gel matrix, which broadens the SPR band and may affect performance. Laser-induced surface damage occurs at certain input energies, indicating limitations in damage threshold. The gold content is low, and scalability or long-term stability under various conditions is not fully addressed.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a solvent-assisted dispersing process to prepare nanocomposites, involving synthesis and surface modification of gold nanorods, preparation of ormosil sol, and curing into gel glass. Characterization methods include UV-vis spectroscopy, TEM, XRD, FT-IR, TGA, and optical limiting measurements.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Gold nanorods are synthesized using a seed-mediated growth method with specific chemicals. Ormosil gel glass is prepared from MTES and MPS. Samples with different gold nanorod concentrations (0.038%, 0.077%, 0.192%) are used.
