From the measurements of σ(a) and σ(e), we were able to easily derive both the absorption and scattering cross-sections for each type of gold nanostructure. Additonally, we obtained the extinction cross-section (σ(e), sum of absorption and scattering) from the extinction spectrum recorded using a conventional UV-vis-NIR spectrometer. We then calculated σ(a) by dividing the μ(a) by the corresponding concentration of the Au nanostructure. μ(a)) derived from a set of methylene blue solutions with different concentrations. For each type of nanostructure, we firstly obtained μ(a) from the PA signal by benchmarking against a linear calibration curve (PA signal vs. Value of absorption coefficient and optical conductivity of Co 2 CrSb is greatest than other two compounds. Optical properties play an important role to understand the nature of material for optical phenomenon and optoelectronics devices. The blue curve represents silicon which is an indirect semiconductor. Calculated magnetic moments have good agreement with the Slater-Pauling behavior. The figure below compares the absorption coefficient a of different semiconductors. The method is based on photoacoustic (PA) imaging, where the detected signal is directly proportional to the absorption coefficient (μ(a)) of the nanostructure. Absorption studies of indirect semiconductors like germanium show two distinct absorption regions and allow to evaluate the energy of the involved phonon. This paper presents a method for measuring the optical absorption cross-sections (σ(a)) of Au-Ag nanocages and Au nanorods.
