摘要
In this study, localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the spherical silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was evaluated based on experimental and theoretical viewpoints. In the experimental phase, a facile seed-mediated method was employed to synthesize spherical AgNPs with different sizes. As expected, an increase in the size of AgNPs resulted in a red-shift in LSPR peak position from 390 to 460 nm. Besides, the theoretical LSPR peak position of AgNPs was derived from Mie theory using different refractive indices databases. A comparison between the experimentally obtained data and the theoretical predictions indicated that "Palik" database can lead to a more reliable data regarding the size of AgNPs. Finally, a relation was established for the prediction and estimation of AgNPs' size through a simple measurement of LSPR position with a UV-Vis spectrometer.
