The metal nanocluster composite glasses , which are prepared by ion implantation, have been shown to be promising non-linear photonic materials. Here, we report on the influence of glass composition on the properties of gold nanoparticles embedded in different types of silicate glasses. The used glasses varying in concentration and the types of the network modifiers and/or formers elements were implanted with Au+ ions with the energy 1.7 MeV and the fluency 1×1016 cm-2. The formation of nanoparticles was induced by the post-implantation annealing of the samples around transformation temperature of the used glasses for 5 hours. The samples were characterised by various methods: Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscope Analysis and Z-scan technique.
