    Effect of solvent refractive index on the surface plasmon resonance nanoparticle optical absorption
    (2007) Ertas, G.; Süzer, Şefik
    Optical properties of plasmon coupled silver and gold nanoparticles were studied as a function of the refractive index of the surrounding medium. Our studies confirmed that the effect of changes in the refractive index of the surrounding medium was more difficult to demonstrate from an experimental point of view, because of the very high susceptibility of nanoparticles to aggregate in aqueous and organic solvents. Whereas the position of the absorption bands of triiodide in these solvents shows a clear dependence on medium's refractive index, the surface plasmon band position of silver and gold nanoparticles do not exhibit the same dependence. This is attributed to a non-negligible interaction of these solvents with nanoparticle surfaces. Copyright © 2007 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.

    The effects of surface treatment on optical and vibrational properties of stain-etched silicon
    (Pergamon Press, 1995) Kalem, Ş.; Göbelek, D.; Kurtar, R.; Mısırlı, Z.; Aydınlı, A.; Ellialtioǧlu, R.
    The effects of surface treatment on optical and vibrational properties of porous silicon. (por-Si) layers grown on p-type Si wafers by electroless etching technique were studied by FTIR spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). The results indicate a correlatiora between the PL intensity and the strength of the absorption bands induced by mulltihydride complexes (SiHn, n ≥ 2). However, similar correlation was also established for monohydride species as evidenced from the layers containing no multihydrides. Furthermore, a new band is observed at 710 cm-1 and assigned to multihydrides suggesting a ne it, local bonding environment in these layers. © 1995.
