Abstract

New composites with hybrid CdSe/ZnS and Au/CdSe nanoparticles (NPs) were chemically synthesized in the thermotropic liquid crystalline phase (smectic A) of cadmium octanoate. Features of structure and nonlinear optical properties of glassy cadmium octanoate composites with hybrid core/shell NPs were studied using small-angle X-ray scattering method and Z-scan technique. Experimental optical setup (Z-scan) is based on a Nd: YAG laser, generating 9 ns pulses with a repetition rate of 0,5 Hz on a wavelength of 532 nm. The effects of the influence of hybrid NPs on the nonlinear optical properties of nanocomposites are considered in this study.
