AI Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on how the shape and size of noble metal nanoparticles in composites can influence their linear and nonlinear optical properties.
- A combination of effective medium approximation and discrete dipole approximation is used to develop a fast and accurate numerical method for this study.
- The findings indicate that adjusting the nanoparticles' size and shape can significantly enhance their optical parameters by aligning the plasmon resonance with a specific frequency.
Article Abstract
We study the effective linear and nonlinear optical parameters of composites containing noble metal nanoparticles and their dependence on the shape and size of the particles. Our numerical approach is based on the effective medium approximation combined with discrete dipole approximation, which results in a fast and accurate numerical method. The results demonstrate the possibility to achieve large enhancements of the linear and nonlinear optical parameters by tuning the plasmon resonance to a desired frequency by changing the size and the shape of the nanoparticles.
