<abstract language="eng">Optical properties of nanoparticles tin dioxide and titanium dioxide mesoporous obtained by numerical simulation with matlab software. The whole spectra have been fitted by Drude model and Mie theory, whose best fit parameter such as the size, surrounding medium reveal the SnO2 and TiO2 nanoparticles were highly transparent with average transmittance exceeding 93% in the wavelength visible region between 300 and 800nm for both material. We demonstrate that in visible region in particular between 350 and 800 nm, the transmittance rate is independent of SnO2 or TiO2 size. Resonance band of Ag/SnO2 nanoshell increase towards blue with an increase shell thickness in the investigated spectral rang. Absorption cross section spectra of Ag/SnO2 nanoshel have maxima at 410 nm for silver nanoparticle and the maxima exhibite a blue gamme from 410 nm to 490 nm with an increase SnO2 thickness from 0 nm to 100 nm. The illustrated results of this work (the high transparency and the resonance evolution) show this material could be good candidates for optoelectronic applications.</abstract>
