Effect of Hydrothermal Synthesis Time and Solvent Replacement on ZrO₂ Sols

Abstract:

ZrO2 sols were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis. With different hydrothermal synthesis time, ZrO2 particle size varied from 5nm to 16nm. And ZrO2 thin films were prepared with spin coating method. ZrO2 thin films were characterized or examined by many kinds of instruments. And 1-on-1 laser-induced damage threshold tests on ZrO2 films were carried out. Refractive index and thickness of the ZrO2-PVP films were measured by means of automatic scanning spectroscopic ellipsometer and the refractive index of ZrO2 -PVP film changed with the addition of PVP content.
