Summary:Individual optical properties of silver nanoparticles and their composites with transparent matrices were calculated at wavelength 1060 nm and various temperatures. It was shown that the absorption coefficient of the nanoparticles depended almost linearly on temperature whereas the scattering efficiency and anisotropy depended weakly on temperature. The coefficients of reflectance and transmission of a slab decreased and the effective absorption coefficient increased as the temperature increased. The studied trends could be used to obtain temperature dependences of metal optical properties.
