Abstract
Photo-radical copolymerization of 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane was carried out by using polymethylphenylsilane as a macro-photoinitiator to fo rm polysilane-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane copolymers. Organic inorga nic hybrid thin films with highly dispersed polysilane segments were succes sfully prepared from the copolymers by a sol-gel method. Refractive index a nd surface morphology of the hybrid thin films were found to change by UV i rradiation.
