We propose a novel derived optical model fitted to the experimental transmittance of PVC-PS hybrid thin films doped with Silica nanoparticles. The films are synthesized using a simple dip-coating method. The model has successfully interpreted the experimental spectral behaviour of transmittance of amorphous semiconductors and dielectric thin films. Interestingly, our model reproduces the optical parameters of the investigated thin films in good agreement with those predicted by Tauc plot. The great advantage of the proposed model over other models lies in its ability to explain the correlations between the film thickness and the optical bandgap. Furthermore, we investigate the structural, physical, and optical properties of PVC-PS- SiO2 thin films, in relevance to the silica percentage content. XRD measurements show that the as-prepared polymeric thin films are amorphous. In addition, SEM micrographs indicate …
