Synthesis and Characterizations of a Very Low Index Silica Aerogel Optical Thin Film

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Very low index silica aerogel thin films were deposited by spin-coating silica sols synthesized by a two-step acid/base catalyzed method. The film shows an index as low as 1.117 and an optical absorption of 10 ppm.
