Optical properties of metal clusters Kreibig U., Vollmer M.
Publisher: Springer

Atomic clusters of metals are an emerging class of extremely interesting materials occupying the intermediate size regime between atoms and nanoparticles. There exist numerous methods of preparation of metal nanoparticles. Kreibig: Optical Properties of Metal Clusters (Springer, Berlin, 1995). Action with condensed matter is followed by a discussion of the optical properties of metals, semiconductors, and superconductors. Currently, his research is focused on the optical properties and applications of noble metal nanoparticles and semiconductor nanocrystals. Optical Properties of Metal Clusters. Human interest in the colors of such colloidal systems dates back to the Roman times, as pointed out by Kreibig and Vollmer[2] in their excellent review of the optical properties of metal clusters. In particular, metal nanoparticles are attractive due to their unique biomedical1, catalytic2, and optical properties3.
