Abstract
A method for obtaining a metal oxide organic compound composite includes dissolving a hydrated yttrium chloride and an epoxide in a solvent, and obtaining a gel including the metal oxide organic compound composite.
Claims8
A method for producing a metal oxide organic compound composite comprising:
- combining a metal chloride and an epoxide in a solvent, wherein water is present in at least one of (i) the solvent and (ii) a water of hydration of the metal chloride, to form a gel, the metal chloride comprising titanium chloride and the epoxide having a first refractive index;
- and
- replacing the epoxide having the first refractive index in the gel with a material having a second refractive index different from the first refractive index.
