摘要
ZnO/Ag nanocomposites with different silver concentration are successfully synthesized by solvothermal method. The characterization of the as-synthesized samples is done using XRD, UV-visible spectroscopy and HRTEM and the results indicate that the composites consist of silver nanoparticles attached to the ZnO nanoparticles. The optical non-linearity in these samples is studied using open aperture Z-scan technique and the experimental results agree well with a theoretical model involving two-photon absorption. It is found that the parameters of optical limiting can be tuned in a broad band by varying the silver concentration in the samples.
