dc.description.abstractTiO 2- and ZrO 2-doped hybrid polymers were prepared by an anhydrous sol-gel process, and their optical properties were studied. Incorporation of TiO 2 and ZrO 2 was found useful in promoting sol-gel condensation reactions and reducing the OH absorption and optical losses of the hybrid polymers. The thermo-optic properties of the TiO 2- and ZrO 2-doped hybrid polymer thin films were measured, and linear functions were observed for the changes in film thickness and refractive index during thermal scanning tests. The photosensitivity of the hybrid materials upon UV irradiation was observed to increase with the increase of the content of TiO 2 and ZrO 2, and the mechanisms for TiO 2 and ZrO 2enhancing the photosensitivity of the hybrid polymers are discussed.
