Sol-gel processing is a low temperature, low cost wet chemistry
route to a range of different materials, particularly glassy and
ceramic oxides, including nanoparticles and powders, fibers, thin
films and membranes, or monoliths and composites. Thin films and
coatings represent by far the most important category of sol-gel
derived products with optical, electronic and magnetic
functionalities, for example photoresist and dielectric
spin-on-glass layers, flat screen displays, anti-reflection,
conducting and magnetic disk coatings, as well as photochromic,
electrochromic and photovoltaic coatings. Sol-gel derived materials
are homogeneous at the molecular level and are a good example of a
bottom-up approach to materials synthesis. There is increasing need
of new optical and photonic materials with improved performance,
where molecular level homogeneity and easy fabrication in film form
may be especially convenient, highlighting a decisive advantage of
sol-gel over other more established technologies to obtain graded
index optical components, solar control coatings, phosphors, glass
ceramics or multilayer photonic structures. There is no book
available yet which focuses in particular on optical and photonic
sol-gel derived materials. This is what makes this book unique at
this point for those especially or exclusively interested in
optical and photonic functional materials and applications. This
book represents an important tool to update scientists and
engineers with recent advances in the rapidly evolving field of
optical and photonic materials, components and devices. Our target
audience are those working in materials science, physics,
engineering and chemistry disciplines, in particular academics and
researchers working in advanced optical/photonic processing
technologies, research and development engineers in high technology
industries and research project leaders. This book will also be an
essential tool for graduate students pursuing a PhD or even a
Master's degree.
