Thin films of vanadium pentoxide ($V_{2}O_{5}$) have been deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from $V_{2}O_{5}$ target in gas mixture of argon and oxygen. Crystal structure, surface morphology, surface composition and optical properties of films prepared under different substrates are characterized through XRD, SEM, AES, XPS and optical absorption measurements. The films prepared below $100^{\circ}C$ are amorphous, and those prepared above $200^{\circ}C$ are polycrystalline. Thermally Induced oxidation of films into higher oxide has been observed with increasing substrate temperature. Vanadium oxide films show two optical absorption bands indicating the presence of direct and indirect transitions.

Magnetic and magneto-optical properties of regioregular (>99%) poly(3-dodecylthiopenes are investigated. Faraday rotation of spin-coated films show extremely large Verdet constants, falling strongly with decreasing regioregularity. EPR spectroscopy at room temperature shows the presence of about 1 spin/190 monomers, indicative of delocalisation beyond a single polymer chain. SQUID measurements on the polymer give an effective magnetic moment of about 48900 mB, corrsponding to a S-value of 25.000. The Weiss-constant is 1.33 K indicating ferromagnetic coupling. Our experimental results show that organic polymer magnets can be prepared. Large MO effects allow the use of these materials in all-organic MO-sensors and devices.

The MgGa2Se4 single crystal for study of optical properties is for the first time grown by Bridgmna method. The crystal structure of grown MgGa2Se4 single crystal has the Rhomobohedral structure (R3m) and its lattice constant are a=3.950\ulcorner c=38.893\ulcornerin Hexagonal structure. The energy band structure of grown MgGa2Se4 single crystal structure has direct band gap and the optical energy gap measured from optical absorption in this crystal is 2.20eV at 290K. The temperature dependence of energy gap was given Eg(T)=Eg(O)-aT\ulcorner)B+T), from varshni equation, where Eg(O)=2.34eV, a=8.79x10**-4eV/and b=250K.

We have deposited the three kinds of the Langmuir-Blodgett films (Phenylhy drazone, O-stilbazene, N-stilbazene) which have optically nonlinear effect. To study the electro-optic characteristics of these LB films, we performed the differential attenuated total reflection experiment in which the optical properties of the LB films modulated by the electric field(νE = 1KHz). The surface non-linear susceptibilities $\chi$(2) of these LB films obtained, are 1.17$\times$10-10 (m/V), 36.3$\times$10-10 (m/V), and 1.62$\times$10-10 (m/V) for Phenylhydrazone, O-stilbazene, and N-stilbazene, respectively.

In this paper, we report the optical and structural properties of a bilayer circular filter fabricated by a glancing angle deposition technique. The bilayer circular filter is realized by a two-layer $TiO_2$ helical film with layers of opposite structural handedness. It is found that the bilayer circular filter reflects both right and left circularly polarized light with wavelength lying in the Bragg regime. The microstructure of the bilayer circular filter is also investigated using a scanning electron microscope.

We investigate optical properties of amorphous alumina (Al2O3) dust grains in the envelopes around O-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars using laboratory measured optical data. We derive the optical constants of amorphous alumina over a wide wavelength range that satisfy the Kramers-Kronig relation and reproduce the laboratory data. Using the amorphous alumina and silicate dust, we compare the radiative transfer model results with the observed spectral energy distributions. Comparing the theoretical models with observations on various IR two-color diagrams for a large sample of O-rich AGB stars, we find that the amorphous alumina dust (about 10-40%) mixed with amorphous silicate better models the observed points for the O-rich AGB stars with thin dust envelopes.

$SnO_2$ thin films have been prepared by chemical vapor deposition technique. Electrical and optical properties of the films have been investigated. It is found that the electrical condictivity and optical transparency of the films are most affected by deposition temperature and more affected by $SnCl_4$ partial pressure than by $O_2$ partial pressure. Experimental results show that the conductivity increases with high optical transparency as deposition temperature increases up to 50$0^{\circ}C$ but the conductivity decreases with the loss of transparency as deposition temperature increases above $600^{\circ}C$.

Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films have been prepared on the glass substrates (Corning 1737) by sol-gel dip-coating method employing zinc acetate and aluminum chloride hexahydrate for the transparent conducting oxide (TCO) applications. 1 at% Al was doped to the ZnO thin films. The effects of post-heating temperature on the crystallization, optical and electrical properties of the AZO films have been investigated. Experimental results showed that post-heating temperature affected the microstructure, electrical resistance, and optical transmittance of the AZO films. From the X-ray diffraction analysis, all films have hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure. Optical transmittance spectra of the AZO films exhibited transmittance higher than about 80% within the visible wavelength region and the optical direct band gap ($E_g$) of these films was increased with increasing post-heating temperature. A minimum resistivity of $2.5{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ was observed at $650^{\circ}C$.

The effects of the post-deposition annealing on the structural optical properties of sputtered $TiO_2$ thin films were studied; annealing was carried out in air up to $1000^{\circ}C$ for different duration. The results of the X-ray diffraction and the raman spectroscopy showed the annealing-condition dependent structural transformation of $TiO_2$ films from the as-deposited amorphous phase to the anatase and rutil phases. The spectroscopic elliposometry was used to investigate the deposition-condition dependence of the as-deposted films optical constants and also the evolution of the optical constants correlated with the annealing-induced structural transformation.

The dependence of the IR optical properties of PMMA/$Al_2O_3$ nanocomposite on the alumina content was investigated in the wavelength range of $3500-2800cm^{-1}$. The samples were prepared via emulsion polymerization technique using oleic acid as a coupling agent. Grafting density calculations were carried out by means of elemental analysis CHN to yield the best coupling agent content. FTIR analysis confirmed the existence of a chemical bond between aluminum oxide and oleic acid. The outcomes of XRD analyses showed the presence of cubic gamma aluminum oxide in the nanocomposite, in contrast to the amorphous nature of PMMA. TEM images showed the core-shell morphology of the particles other than pristine PMMA. Optical constants of the nanocomposite were calculated based on FTIR spectra and the Kramers-Kronig equations. The presence of nano alumina modified some of the optical indexes in IR region.
