Laser sintering of silver nanoparticle thin films: microstructure and optical properties
Abstract
We present a method for the sintering of silver (Ag) nanoparticle thin films by millisecond pulsed laser irradiation. The microstructure of sintered thin films and sintering behaviors of nanoparticles were systematically investigated in this paper. Absorption spectra of sintered thin films showed blue-shifted surface plasmon resonances (SPR) from 500 nm to 480 nm and red-shifted from 480 nm to 550 nm when laser power was varied from 100 W to …
