Laser dyes perylene red (p-red) or pyrromethene 567 (p567) were co-doped with coumarin 440 (C440) or coumarin 500 (C500) into MTES- and VTES-derived organically modified silicates (ORMOSILs) by sol-gel process. The effects of coumarin dye concentration on the laser performances of p-red and p567 were investigated. The results from laser efficiency measurements illustrated that at optimized coumarin concentration, the slope efficiency of co-doped p-red increased by a factor of 2 while that of co-doped p567 increased marginally. It was also found that by co-doping coumarin, the laser wavelength of p-red blue shifted and the laser thresholds for p567 and p-red could be reduced. The energy transfer mechanisms involved were also discussed.

The mid-infrared (4 000-200 cm-1) absorption spectra, far infrared (400-40 cm-1) absorption spectra, infrared (1 400-200 cm-1) reflection spectra, and Raman spectra (3 600-50 cm-1) were measured at room temperature for polycrystalline heulandite, a natural zeolite from Poonah, India.

Sol-gel solutions prepared from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) hydrolyzed in acidic conditions were used to make thin films on Si wafers via spin coating. Solutions with H2O/TEOS ratios of 2, 5, and 10 were prepared and aged at room temperature in sealed containers for times ranging from <2.5 h to 1 month. Transmission Fourier transform infrared spectra acquired around 1 min after spinning showed peaks characteristic of both SiO2 and SiOH. Additional features at ≍580, 1093, and 1130 cm−1 were observed and possible origins are discussed. Peaks at ≍580 and 1130 cm−1, which increased in intensity with solution age time, are attributed to cyclic Si–O, e.g., 4-member rings. When films were exposed to room air, ring concentration decreased significantly within 30 min. Rings were stable for hours, however, when films were kept in N2. The feature at 1093 cm−1, most sensitive to H2O/TEOS, is attributed to residual Si–O–C.

ABSTRACTThe introduction of organic groups into inorganic networks by the sol-gel process opens the possibility for the preparation of new materials, and typical properties resulting from inorganic as well as from organic components may be combined. Some general aspects and different examples of material developments are reviewed.

AbstractThe design, synthesis and stimuli-responsive behavior of organically-modified silicates (ORMOSILS) is reported. The ORMOSILS behave as ‘smart’ materials by undergoing structural changes at the molecular level to respond to changes in environmental variables. Typical responses in the form of swelling/shrinkage with respect to changes in temperature, pH, and salt concentrations are presented. Finally, the nature of predominant mechanism responsible for the sol-gel's behavior towards combined stimuli of high temperature and low pH is discussed.
