The localized formation of very small metal particles enables the generation of nanostructured materials, which are of interest for manifold applications in photonic and optoelectronic devices. This study investigates the space-selective precipitation of Ag and Ag/Au nanoparticles induced by 193 nm laser irradiation. The Ag and Au ions were introduced into the soda-lime silicate glass matrix by melt and ion exchange processes. The experimentally recorded spectra of optical spectroscopy demonstrated that the reduction of metal ions is due to defect generation, for example the generation electron hole centres. The sizes of nanoparticles, their distribution and their thermal stability were investigated as a function of the used laser parameters and the thermal treatments, respectively. Measurements of the optical density and experiments of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) allowed to identify the resulting surface plasmon resonance in correlation with the size and composition of formed nanoparticles.
