For optical filters, TiO$_2$ and SiO$_2$ films are better choices due to their large refractive index contrast. In spite of the various available techniques, the sol-gel spin coating method is one of the easiest and inexpensive technique. Here, we report the experimental studies of (TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$)$_{2.5}$ bilayer-based structures prepared with two distinct precursor concentrations. FTIR analysis showed the characteristic vibration peaks of the Ti-O-Ti and Si-O-Si bonds. XRD measurements of both the samples based on the low and high-precursor concentrations, revealed the dominant peaks of TiO$_2$-anatase phase. FESEM study endorsed the increased thicknesses of the individual layers due to enhanced precursor concentrations. Both samples evidenced for the reflection/stop bands with 100% reflectivity. Furthermore, multilayer structure of (TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$)$_{2.5}$ bilayers showed the corresponding shift of the reflection band from the visible-infrared wavelength region in accordance with the low-high precursor concentration. This shifting of the reflection band is attributed to the increased thicknesses of the films which is due to the enhanced grains size as confirmed by the AFM studies.
Keywords: reflectors, multilayers structures, cross-section SEM morphology, precursor concentration.
