Linear and nonlinear optical properties of ZnO/PMMA nanocomposite films

Abstract: The nanoscale crystals ͑NCs͒ of ZnO were embedded into polymethylmethacrylate ͑PMMA͒ polymeric matrix and nanocomposite films were prepared by modified spin coating method. The surface of the ZnO/PMMA nanocomposite films has been investigated using atomic force and scanning electron microscopy. The prepared films are highly transparent, the ultraviolet-visible spectra show their high optical quality. The second and third harmonic generation ͑SHG and THG͒ studies of ZnO/PMMA nanocomposite films with different c… Show more

“…Potential applications could be in displays, waveguides, and solar cells' frequency converters, as well as nonlinear optical applications such as logic elements in nanoscale optoelectronic circuitry. [5][6][7][8][9] The main disadvantage of polymeric nanocomposites is visible light scattering due to the particle domains in the transparent polymeric medium. The sharp refractive indices increasing at the polymer-pigment particle interface cause optical scattering and the transmittance of the composites is remarkably reduced.…”
