Abstract

MeV implantation of Au has been used to create a high density of Au nanoclusters in the near surface of fused silica. Measurements of the nanocluster size and size distribution under various implantation/annealing conditions are presented and correlated with measurements of optical absorption arising from surface plasmon resonance absorption by the Au nanoclusters in fused silica. Preliminary measurements of the nonlinear refractive index are included.
