Hybrid Materials for Optical Limiting

摘要

Materials based on alkynyl platinum derivatives and thiacalixarenes were prepared through the sol-gel process.The molecular species were grafted to the matrix(class II hybrid)in order to maximise the concentration and the stability of the final solid-state material.Broadband optical limiting performance in the visible wavelength region was observed in the prepared materials.Thermomechanical characterisation of the matrix is also discussed.
