Abstract

Gold nanoparticles in the near surface volume of glass are generated by combining laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) and laser implantation into one single laser process called laser transfer implantation (LTI). Nanosecond pulses of a KrF excimer laser at 248 nm wavelength are used to transfer and implant the material from a gold- coated, UV-transparent polymer film into soda lime, borofloat, and flint glasses. The process can be applied for marking glass with colored labels consisting of spectrally selectively absorbing plasmonic nanoparticles.
