Abstract

Wet chemical processing of ceramics, glasses and inorganic-organic hybrids in the form of films has a large number of both proven and potential optical applications. The present review focuses on progress since 1990 in the areas of ferroelectric films, electrochromic and photochromic films, planar waveguides, and NLO films. Where appropriate, advances are illustrated by results obtained in our laboratories.
