Abstract

AbstractHigh-dose ion implantation was used to create silver metallic grains in the epoxy resins The structure and optical properties of Ag/organic systems were investigated by transmission electron microscopy and absorption UV-visible spectroscopy, It was established that silver implantation into the organic substrate produced colloidal nanoclusters in the near-surface region, whose average size and size distribution were function of dose value. The silver nanoclusters give rise to optical absorption at the plasmon wavelength. and maximum absorption was shown to be correlated with filling factors. The d.c. resistivities of irradiated samples were measured in temperature range from 5 to 300 K The observed exp(T0/T)n behaviour of resistivity indicated that synthesized metal particles are separated.
