Abstract

Sol-gel matrices doped with lead sulfide nanoparticles showing a structured absorption spectrum were synthesized by using the procedure previously reported for CdS doped matrices. The morphology of the PbS aggregates was investigated by high resolution electron microscopy, and the observations are correlated with the absorption spectra. Finally, preliminary results concerning some linear optical properties of the materials are presented.
