摘要
Nanocomposite films of Poly (methylmethacrylate) filled with different concentration of silver nanoparticles were prepared by ex-situ method. Firstly, silver nanoparticles were obtained by reducing the aqueous solution of silver nitrate with sodium borohydride then Ag/PMMA films were prepared by mixing colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles with solution of polymer. From absorption and specular reflection spectra, the optical band gap and refractive index (n) have been calculated. The decrease in optical bandgap and increase in refractive index has been indicative of the modifications in optical band structure of the PMMA matrix.
