Abstract

Summary: Poly(di‐n‐hexylsilane) (PDHS)‐containing zirconia hybrid thin films were prepared by a sol‐gel reaction of PDHS copolymers and zirconium alkoxide, and it was found that the thermochromic properties of PDHS due to the transformation of the SiSi main chain were suppressed in the PDHS‐zirconia hybrid thin film.
