Abstract
In this paper, copper-gold and copper-silver bimetallic surface nanospheres were formed using ArF
excimer laser irradiation with a wavelength of 193 nm and a duration of 15 ns on thin film samples
consisting of two metal layers deposited on BK7 glass. The density and shape of the structures were
obtained under different irradiation conditions. The optical properties, morphology, and stability of
optimal copper-gold and copper-silver structures were compared. The results show that high-density
copper-gold core-shell nanospheres with high optical response and stability are produced at a fluence of
150 mJ/cm
2
and 5 laser pulses. Silver-copper nanostructures showed lower density, weaker optical
response, and lower stability than other nanostructures. The obtained copper-gold nanostructures are
suitable for use in plasmonic applications such as biosensors and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.
