Abstract

Porous stable metal-organic films can be processed under mild conditions by the hydrolysis of carboxylic acid and titanium isopropoxide mixtures. It is of importance to establish the structure of such materials. Raman spectroscopy is a useful technique in determining structural changes in titanium isopropoxide carboxylate solutions, but weak scattering does not allow for study of thin films unless surface enhancement is used. In an attempt to elucidate the relationship between coating solutions and the final structure of a cast film, we discuss Raman spectra of precursor solutions in a variety of conditions.
