Abstract: | Quartz glasses containing ultradisperse particles (with a mean radius of 5 ± 3 nm) of semiconductor compounds CuxS and CuInS2 were synthesized using the sol-gel technology. The line and differential absorption spectra of such glasses were investigated.
In the range 600–700 nm, the samples demonstrate absorption bands that are assigned to the lowest-lying energy transition
in quantum-size particles. Excitation by laser pulses with a wavelength of 540 nm causes the effect of induced absorption
in the range of 500–950 nm. The induced absorption in the samples containing CuxS nanoparticles undergoes relaxation which has a characteristic time of ∼500 psec, and in the samples with CuInS2 nanoparticles it has a two-exponential form with τ1 ≈ 30 psec and τ2>1 nsec.
