摘要
The ultraviolet (UV) through visible (VIS) absorptions are determined and analyzed for porous type VI sol-gel-derived silica optical matrices. Changes in the W-VIS spectral response are related to changes in the texture and molecular structure of the gel silica. There is a significant increase in UV cutoff as the pore size increases from 12 Angstrom to 90 Angstrom radius pores, This result is analyzed using classical scattering theory in combination with semi-empirical molecular orbital (MO) calculations. The concentration of small (three- and four-member) silica rings is a function of the processing temperature and history. As a result the UV absorption is observed to move to larger wavelengths as the number of three-member silica rings increases.
