Abstract
In this work, the complex magnitude of the dielectric constant of a thin film of ZnO nano-particles has been obtained in the range of visible spectrum. Using this spectrum, the UV–visible absorptive spectrum of ZnO spherical nano-colloid is obtained using Mie theory. The absorption spectrum of ZnO nano-colloid has been related to the optical properties of the prepared thin film with a simulation model based on the Mie theory and the findings are corroborated by fitting with the experimental results. Based on this curve fitting, the volume fraction of nanoparticles in the nano-colloid is obtained and the diameter (and the Bohr radius) of the molecules contributing in a nanoparticle crystal structure has been obtained. In this paper, frequency dependence of the optical properties coefficients and also local field considerations are applied. Finally the precise magnitude of saturation intensity of ZnO nano-colloid is measured.
