介质层材料对纳米银夹层结构光学性能的影响
|
Abstract:
纳米银颗粒在可见光波段具有波长可调的吸收，在光学薄膜设计领域具有重要的应用价值，已引起广泛关注，然而，在不同介质层夹层结构中，纳米Ag颗粒的光学性质有所差异，但是夹层结构中纳米Ag颗粒的光学常数缺乏研究和对比。本文通过采用不同的介质层，利用介质层的介电性质对纳米银形貌以及其介电环境的影响，探究了SiN/AgNPs/SiN、ZnAlO/AgNPs/ZnAlO、ZnSnO/AgNPs/ZnSnO、TiOx/AgNPs/TiOx四种纳米银夹层结构的光吸收行为。结果表明纳米Ag颗粒在ZnSnO、ZnAlO、TiO夹层中的吸收峰可见光区，并且吸收强度较小，在SiN夹层中的吸收峰为位于565 nm处的宽峰。对四种夹层结构进行退火并对比吸收的变化，发现SiN夹层的热稳定性最好；在SiN夹层结构中，随着Ag层溅射厚度的增加，吸收峰红移并且吸收强度增大。本文对不同介质层材料中纳米Ag光吸收变化进行了简要分析，并拟合出夹层结构中纳米Ag层的光学常数，为纳米银夹层结构应用于薄膜光学设计提供了实验依据。
Nanoscale silver particles exhibit wavelength-tunable absorption in the visible light spectrum, which endows them with significant potential application in the field of optical thin-film design and has attracted extensive attention. However, the optical properties of nanoscale Ag particles vary in different interlayer structures, yet there is a lack of research and comparison on the optical constants of nanoscale Ag particles in interlayer structures. In this study, the influence of the dielectric properties on the morphology of nanoscale silver and its light absorption behavior of four types of nanoscale silver interlayer structures: SiN/AgNPs/SiN, ZnAlO/AgNPs/ZnAlO, ZnSnO/AgNPs/ZnSnO, and TiN/AgNPs/TiN. The results indicate that the absorption peaks of Ag nanoparticles in the ZnSnO, ZnAlO, and TiN interlayers are located in the visible light region, and the absorption intensity is relatively low., while in the SiN interlayers, the absorption peak was a broad peak located at 565 nm. After annealing the four interlayer structures and comparing the changes in the absorption curves, it was found that the SiN interlayer had the best thermal stability. In the SiN interlayer structure, as the thickness of the Ag layer increased, the absorption peak of the interlayer structure red-shifted and the absorption intensity increased. This paper briefly analyzed the changes in the light absorption of nanoscale Ag in different dielectric layer materials and fitted the optical constants of the Ag layer in the interlayer structures, providing support for the application of nanoscale silver interlayer structures in thin-film optical design.
