The present work considers the integration of g-C3N4 nanosheets into PVC/PVP polymer nanocomposites at ratios of 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, and 1.0 wt%. The XRD data scans showed semicrystalline structures for all PVC/PVP/g-C3N4 polymer blend films. The FTIR and Raman measurements revealed intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the g-C3N4 surface and the OH− groups of the PVC/PVP network. ESEM morphology analysis for PVC/PVP/g-C3N4 nanocomposite films displayed homogeneous surface textures. The data of TGA showed improved thermal stability as the decomposition temperature increased from 262 to 276 °C with the content of g-C3N4 (0.0–1.0 wt%). The optical absorbance data for PVC/PVP films improved after the addition of g-C3N4. The optical energy gaps showed compositional dependence on the g-C3N4 content, which changed from 5.23 to 5.34 eV at indirect allowed transitions. The refractive index for these blend films enhanced (1.83–3.96) with the inclusion of g-C3N4. Moreover, the optical susceptibility for these nanocomposite films increased as the content of g-C3N4 changed from 0.0 to 1.0 wt%. Finally, the values of the nonlinear refractive index showed improvement with the increased percentage of g-C3N4. When g-C3N4 was added up to 1.0 wt%, the DC conductivity improved from 4.21 × 10−8 to 1.78 x 10−6 S/cm. The outcomes of this study prove the suitable application of PVC/PVP/g-C3N4 in optoelectronic fiber sensors.

The fast advancements in technology have generated significant interest in optoelectronic materials. Nevertheless, the difficulty of creating affordable materials with exceptional optical characteristics is an ongoing challenge. Therefore, the objective of this work was to tune the optical properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) by embedding silver vanadate (SV) in the polymer matrix. Moreover, the wettability test of the fabricated composite membranes showed a hydrophobic behavior, with the PMMA film containing 0.6 wt.% SV showed a contact angle of 86.75 ± 0.7°. Furthermore, SV showed high thermal stability with a maximum weight loss of 0.74% at 830°C, which is very high thermal stability at high temperatures. In addition, the 0.6 wt.% SV@PMMA film exhibited a maximum weight loss of 96.7% at 785°C. Moreover, the 0.6 wt.% SV@PMMA film showed the lowest indirect band gap energy (2.02 eV) compared to the other films and pure SV NPs. The findings demonstrate the potential of the synthesized films for optoelectronic applications.
