Determination of the Size Distribution of Metallic Colloids from Extinction Spectroscopy

In this paper, we explore the ability of extinction spectroscopy to characterize colloidal suspensions of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). We demonstrate that the Au NPs’ size distribution can be deduced by analyzing their extinction spectra using Mie theory. Our procedure, based on the non-negative lea...
