Abstract: (2063 Views)
In this paper, a solution of polystyrene and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) with different concentrations of nanoparticles is prepared and then is coated by spin coating method on the surface of quartz substrates. The structural properties of the layers were investigated using scanning and transmission electron microscopes. The thickness of the layers is measured using a profilometer. The nonlinear refractive index of the layers is also measured using the closed aperture z-scan method. The results of this work indicate increase of the nonlinear refractive index of polymer with adding TiO2 nanoparticles. It is found that increase of the nonlinear refractive index is proportional to the percentage of the added TiO2 nanoparticles to the polystyrene polymer.
