Wavelength-Dependent Nonlinear Absorption in Palladium Nanoparticles

This paper aims to study the nonlinear absorption characteristics of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) at off-resonant wavelengths. For this purpose, multi-wavelength (500–650 nm) nanosecond Z-scan technique was used. The experimental results indicate that saturated absorption (SA) and the transition...

description This paper aims to study the nonlinear absorption characteristics of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) at off-resonant wavelengths. For this purpose, multi-wavelength (500–650 nm) nanosecond Z-scan technique was used. The experimental results indicate that saturated absorption (SA) and the transition from SA to reverse saturated absorption (RSA) can occur, and depends on the excitation wavelength and energy. When the excitation wavelength is constant, with the increase of excitation energy, PdNPs change from SA to RSA. When the excitation energy is constant, with the excitation wavelength approaching surface plasmon resonance (SPR), PdNPs change from SA to RSA. This phenomenon of SA and RSA under multi-wavelength excitation in the off-resonant region provides a supplement for the systematic study of the nonlinear absorption of PdNPs.
