Abstract: | Dielectric layers with silver nanoparticles in the bulk, synthesized by the vacuum evaporation of metal onto viscous-flow softened polymer substrates are analyzed. New materials with a nonuniform distribution of nanoparticles over the sample thickness are obtained. Optical characteristics of the composition layers are calculated from the transmission spectra. To calculate the optical spectra, a model of a multilayered plane-parallel film structure is considered. Functions of dielectric constants of separate composition layers are determined using the Bruggeman theory of effective medium. A qualitative agreement between the experimental and simulated optical spectra is achieved taking into account nonuniform distribution of metal nanoparticles over the composition material thickness. |
