What are the Optical Properties of Nanomaterials?

The optical properties of nanomaterials can be drastically different from bulk materials due to quantum confinement and surface plasmon resonance. For example, gold nanoparticles exhibit different colors based on their size due to surface plasmon resonance. These unique optical properties are exploited in medical diagnostics, photovoltaics, and optical sensors.
