Optical limiting (OL) properties of CdO nanowires in water and ethanol were investigated by using nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm. Experimental results show that suspension of CdO nanowires in ethanol exhibits better OL property than solution of C 60 in toluene and suspension of CdO nanowires in w

β¦ Synopsis
Optical limiting of 532 nm, 15 ns duration laser pulses in suspensions made by diluting black ink in water, ethanol, and isopropanol was studied and the strength of limiting was found to be quite di erent for the three suspensions. Microscopic investigations showed that the sizes of suspended aggregates were di erent for di erent host liquids. The suspension with largest aggregate was found to exhibit strongest optical limiting. Our work thus shows that host liquid in uences optical limiting in suspensions not only through its thermodynamic properties but also by determining the particle size which has a strong e ect on limiting strength.
