Extinction spectra of nanomaterial suspensions can be dominated by light scattering, hampering quantitative spectral analysis. No simple models exist for the wavelength-dependence of the scattering coefficients in suspensions of arbitrary-sized, high-aspect-ratio nanoparticles. Here, suspensions of BN, talc, GaS, Ni(OH)2, Mg(OH)2 and Cu(OH)2 nanosheets are used to explore non-resonant scattering in wide-bandgap 2D nanomaterials. Using an integrating sphere, scattering coefficient (σ) spectra were measured for a number of size-selected fractions for each nanosheet type. Generally, σ scales as a power-law with wavelength in the non-resonant regime: σ(λ)∝[λ/〈L〉]−m, where 〈L〉 is the mean nanosheet length. For all materials, the scattering exponent, m, forms a master-curve, transitioning from m = 4 to m = 2, as the characteristic nanosheet area increases, indicating a transition from Rayleigh to van der Hulst scattering. In addition, once material density and refractive index are factored out, the proportionality constant relating σ to [λ/〈L〉]−m, also forms a master-curve when plotted versus 〈L〉. Quantitative analysis of the extinction spectra of dispersions of 2D materials is complicated by light scattering. Here, the authors investigate non-resonant scattering in suspensions of wide-bandgap nanosheets, and develop a general model which allows the scattering spectra to be used as metrics for particle size in nanosheet dispersions.
