In this paper, the deposition and optical properties of charge-stabilized gold nanoparticles on silicon oxide substrates is studied, which have been derivatised with (aminopropyl) triemethoxysilane. Monodispersed charged-stabilized colloidal gold nanoparticles with diameters between 20-150 nm were prepared and their self-assembly and optical properties on silica substrates is studied. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is employed to investigate the nanoparticle monolayers ex situ. Analysis of AFM images provide evidence that the formation of the colloidal nanoparticle monolayers is governed by random sequential adsorption. The results indicate that the ionic strength of the suspension influences the spatial distribution of the nanoparticles. For all sizes of the Au nanoparticles tested, optical simulations of extinction coefficients made by finite-difference time domain (FDTD) indicate a resonance peak in the range of 510-600 nm wavelength of the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. The results indicate a simple and inexpensive approach of assembly of plasmonic nanostructures that can find applications in metamaterials and light waveguides.

Gold nanoparticles exhibited strong surface plasmon absorption and couplings between neighboring particles within bioactivated self-assembly modified their optical properties. Colorimetric analysis on the optical modification of surface plasmon resoanance (SPR) shift and flocculation parameter functionalized bioinspired gold assembly for biophotonic application. The physical origin of bioinspired gold aggregation-induced shifting, decreasing, or broadening of the plasmon absorption spectra could be explained in terms of dynamic depolarization, collisional damping, and shadowing effects.

AbstractWe report a new method of Thin Crystal Film deposition. In the present paper we describe the method of crystallization, structure, and optical properties of Bisbenzimidazo[2,1-a:1',2',b']anthra[2,1,9-def:6,5,10-d'e'f']-diisoquinoline-6,9-dion (mixture with cis-isomer) (abbreviated DBI PTCA) sulfonation product. The Thin Crystal Film has a thickness of 200-1000 nm, with anisotropic optical properties such as refraction and absorption indices. X-ray diffraction data evidences a lyotropic liquid crystalline state in liquid phase and crystalline state in solid film. Anisotropic optical properties of the film make it useful in optical devices, e.g. liquid crystal displays.
