Nonlinear Optical Properties of Ag Nano-Particles

Metallic silver, as a multifunctional material, and its nanostructures have attracted a lot of interests [1]. The use of the silver (Ag) nano-particles (NP) as materials for non-linear optics seems to be open a new area in the non-linear optical materials [2]. Furthermore, the optical properties of Ag nanostructures have been characterized by ultraviolet–Vis (UV–Vis) and z-scan method. XRD (X-ray diffraction) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy) studies have been done in order to reveal the structural properties
