silver nanoparticles synthesized in the presence of carboxylated amine complexons (NTA,
Na 2 EDTA, DTPA) without any reductant or polymeric stabilizer. Unusual transient
absorption dynamics in these objects after femtosecond laser irradiation was found,
manifesting as the appearance of an additional long-lived bleaching band. The effect may
be assigned to the inhomogeneous and porous shell of silver nanoparticles synthesized by …
