The plasmonic metal nanoparticles of Ag among others that have strong LSPR in near-UV range. They increase photon absorbance via embedding in the active semiconductor of the solar cell. Thin films of Ag are grown in the desired particle size and interparticle distance easily and at low cost by PLD technique. Ag nanoparticle thin films were grown on micro slide glass at 25-36 mJ laser pulse energies under by PLD using nsNd:YAG laser. The result of this work have been presented by carrying out UV-VIS and AFM analysis. It was concluded that a laser energy increases, the density and size of Ag-NPs arriving on the substrate increases, and the interparticle distance was decreases. Therefore, LSPR wavelength shifts towards to longer wavelength region.en10.1063/1.4976367info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAn Investigation of Localised Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) of Ag Nanoparticles Produced by Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) TechniqueConference Object1815N/AWOS:000435205100023N/A
