Ultraviolet (UV) Irradiation INTRODUCTION Sol–gel methods commonly include a heating process which removes residual organic components and promotes densification and crystallization of amorphous gels. In recent years, lower processing temperatures have been demanded for processing on polymer substrates and for preparing organic–inorganic composite or hybrid materials. Energetic photons in ultraviolet (UV) lights directly activate various kinds of chemical bonds in substances. Thus, it is generally expected that the promotion of chemical reactions in sols or gels and the modification of gel net
