Amino-functionalized mesoporous silica thin films (MTFs) are produced using surface active agent F127, and then gold nanoparticles are introduced into the pore channels to prepare the Au/SiO2 nanocomposite. After assembling the gold, the amino-functionalized MTF undergoes some shrinkage but remains a periodic structure as demonstrated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. The nanocomposite shows an acute characteristic diffraction peak assigned to (111) plane of the face-centered-cubic structure of gold, indicating that gold nanoparticles crystallize well and grow in a preferred orientation in the pore channels. The surface plasma resonance (SPR) absorption peak near 570 nm undergoes a red-shift accompanied by a strengthening of intensity when HAuCl4 is used to react with the amino groups on the internal pore surfaces for 4, 6, and 8 h. The simulative results are consistent with the experimental ones shows that the absorption property of the Au/SiO2 nanocomposite is influenced by the dipping time, which affects the size and volume fraction of embedded gold nanoparticles.

以乳液聚合法制备的平均粒径1.2～1.5 μm单分散聚苯乙烯(PS)微球为核, 经过超声敏化、化学镀、还原等过程制备了PS/Ag核壳结构复合微球。采用透射电镜、X射线衍射、红外光谱、紫外可见光谱对其形貌、物相、结构与光学性质进行了表征与分析。结果表明: PS/Ag复合微球粒径相对均一; 通过多次敏化、控制二次银氨溶液浓度(0.002～0.006 mol/L), 可实现对纳米银壳层厚度的调控; 纳米银壳层沉积生长过程中, 随着PS微球表面银粒子的增多、增大, 复合微球的光学等离子体共振吸收峰产生显著的展宽与红移。

研究了Ag-AAO纳米有序阵列复合结构的等离子共振吸收特性。结果显示,Ag表面等离子共振吸收峰位于λ=352～377 nm范围内,且可通过控制Ag纳米粒子的长径比使其吸收特性发生改变。若长径比增加,吸收峰位蓝移,强度增大,峰形变锐;反之,若长径比减少,吸收峰位红移,强度减弱,峰形逐渐宽化; 运用麦克斯韦加尼特(M-G)理论模拟的计算结果与实验规律基本相符,并较好地阐释了Ag表面等离子共振吸收峰的频移与其纳米粒子长径比之间的一些依赖关系。
