Enhanced of the R6G thermal diffusivity on aggregated small gold particles

R6G dye with gold nanoparticles was prepared in water solution. Using a thermal lens experimental setup, the thermal diffusivity of R6G in presence of gold nanoparticles with Au different concentration was measured. The results show that, the thermal diffusivity of R6G dye mixed with gold nanoparticles increases with the increase of particle metallic concentration, enhancing the thermal diffusivity in the solution. The thermal diffusivity of the samples was studied for a constant concentration of R6G dye 0.1 g/L. The diffusivities were obtained by using the thermal lens aberrant model with las...
