Irradiation-induced Ag nanocluster nucleation in silicate glasses: analogy with photography
R. Espiau de Lamaestre, H. Béa, H. Bernas +2
The synthesis of Ag nanoclusters in sodalime silicate glasses and silica was studied by optical absorption (OA) and electron spin resonance (ESR) experiments under both low (gamma-…
