Abstract
Au nanoparticles dispersed ZrO2 thin films were prepared from two precursor s HAuCl4. 4H(2)O and ZrOCl2. 8H(2)O in air. The structural properties and s ize of Au particle in ZrO2 film were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XR D) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The surface analysis with at omic force microscopy (AFM) showed the effect of monoethanolamine on preven ting the migration of Au particles to the surface. The absorption peak of A u particles by the surface plasma resonance was observed and the red shift of absorption peak was discussed.
