Abstract:Glass-ceramics containing Au nanoparticles have been synthesized in the glass composition 30Li 2 O-70B 2 O 3 with HAuCl 4 .3H 2 O as dopant. The characteristic ruby colour has been observed which is attributed to the surface plasmon resonance of the Au nanoparticles, uniformly embedded in the glass matrix. The imparted red colour due to the presence of gold nanoparticles has been confirmed by studying the optical absorption spectra using UV-VIS spectrometer in the visible range (400-1000 nm) which show a chara… Show more
