Abstract:
The optical properties of gold atoms supported on amorphous silica (Α ±-SiO2) were studied exptl. and theor. in the visible range. Samples were prepd. in situ by depositing Au atoms at low coverages (5 x 1012 cm-2) in UHV, and the optical absorption spectra were recorded by cavity ringdown spectroscopy. The at. absorption bands can be attributed to gold atoms trapped at Si-O.bul. and Si-O- defect sites. The absence of optical transitions typical for Au2 shows that the atoms are efficiently anchored at these defect sites, preventing diffusion and aggregation. Furthermore, these exptl. results reveal that it is now possible to study optical properties of well-defined nanostructures at surface coverages as low as 5 x 1011 cm-2. [on SciFinder(R)]
