Evaluation of structural and optical properties of TeO2 nano and micro structures grown on glass and silicon substrates using thermal evaporation method

Role of SiO2 in tailoring stability and nonlinear optical behaviour of gold nanoparticles in glass

“…Apart from this, enhanced optical performance can be ensured by realising nanoparticle stability which can be attained by incorporating them into a highly dense and transparent oxide matrix [6]. Most of the reported optical amorphous nanocomposite systems are prepared through ion exchange [7][8][9][10], sol-gel [11] or radio-frequency sputtering method [12,13]. However, except sol-gel technique, all other methods mentioned limit the deposition of metallic nanoparticles on the surface only [14].…”

Effect of CuS buffer layer on the structural and optical properties of TeO2 nanowires: a comparative study

“…Various techniques have been used to prepare TeO 2 thin films such as rf reactive sputtering [9], sol-gel process [10], laser ablation [11] and vapor transport [12][13][14]. Vapor transport technique is a simple thermal driven technique which enables to synthesize TeO 2 films with desirable nanostructured morphologies which are suitable for practical applications [12][13][14]. By controlling the synthesis conditions, the morphology of the nanostructures could be tailored [15].…”
