ABSTRACT = {Applying the cohesive energy model, this research theoretically studies how the size of 
nanoparticles affects their optical characteristics. The findings demonstrate that optical 
characteristics are size-dependent for nanoparticles, with an exponentially growing energy 
gap for nanoparticles on a scale of less than 4 nm. As the size of nanoparticles is reduced, 
the absorption wavelength also decreases. Compounds undergo a transition to a higher 
energy spectral area (blue shift) when their wavelength decreases; this change can make 
these compounds effective in certain optical nanodevices.},
