GLASSES AND POLYMER FIRMS WITH EMBEDDED COLLECTIONS OF METAL AND SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS THAT BLOCK THE INFRARED LIGHT

摘要

A composition including a first population of one or more plasmonic nanocrystals having a first, narrow extinction range, and one or more additional populations of one or more plasmonic nanocrystals, each of the one or more additional populations having a unique additional, narrow extinction range. An absorbance spectrum of the composition is characterized by the first, narrow extinction range and the one or more additional, narrow extinction ranges that together block infrared light wavelengths.
