Abstract
Sol-gel copolymerization of iron tricarbonyl-2-(triisopropoxysilyl)-1,3-butadiene with 1,6-bistriethoxysilylhexane and 1,4-bistriethoxysilylbenzene followed by drying produced bridged polysilsesquioxane xerogels. These porous, transparent hybrid materials containing the iron metal precursor were irradiated (UV) and heated under vacuum resulting in the deposition of nano-sized iron particles doped in the xerogels. EDAX and electron diffraction techniques were used to characterize the iron phases. The TEM images of these doped xerogels provided additional information regarding the domain size of the iron phase.
Using a combination of external doping of Cd2+ and S2− ions and internal doping of Fe°, mixed Fe/CdS phases were prepared within the porous bridged polysilsesquioxane xerogels. The resulting doped xerogels were found to have retained their porous morphology.
