TiO2 nano-crystalline film and fixed bed photocatalytic reactor were prepared by the sol-gel process using tetrabutylorthotitanate
as a precursor and glass tube as the substrate. XRD, AFM, SEM and thickness analysis results indicate that the preparation
of nano-crystalline film can be controlled by optimizing experiment process. Under the optimized process, the phase of TiO2 in film is anatase, and the grain size is 3–4 nm. The size of particles, which is about 20-80 nm, can be controlled. The
thickness of monolayer film is in nanometer grade. The thickness and particles size in films growing on nanometer film can
also be controlled in nanometer grade. As a result, the crack of film can be effectively avoided. Rhodamine degradation results
using UV-Vis spectrophotometer show that the activity of nano-crystalline film in the photocatalytic reactor has a good relation
with the diameter of TiO2 particles, that is, the film shows high activity when the size is 20 –30 nm and greatly reduced when the size is above 60
nm. The activity of film does not decrease with the increase of film thickness, and this result indicates that nano-crystalline
film has no ill influence on the transmissivity of ultraviolet light. 相似文献

CuAlO2 thin films were prepared on sapphire substrate by sol-gel method. The influences of annealing temperature, heating rates and annealing time on composition, morphology and photoelectric performance of film were investigated. The results of X-ray power diffraction, scanning electron microscope, transmissivity, and hall parameter tests showed that the CuAlO2 phase was relatively pure when the annealing temperature was above 950 °C. The higher the temperature, the higher the peak position. Under the optimal conditions, CuAlO2 film exhibited the best transmittance (90%) and the highest conductivity (1.23 S cm?1). On this basis, increasing the heating rate and annealing time was in favor of enlarging the size of the particles and the film grain growth direction tended to be unified. 相似文献

Mo:CeO2, Si:CeO2 and Mo:Si:CeO2 films were made by the sol-gel dip-coating technique. XRD investigations of the analogously prepared powders revealed that particle grain size of CeO2 with the addition of Mo, Si or both decreased. FT/IR spectra of the corresponding films showed that no separate Mo-oxide phase was formed while the Si containing CeO2 films had nanocrystallites of ceria as well as amorphous silica. Electrochemical investigations (cyclic voltammetry, chronocoulometry) performed in protic (0.1M LiOH) and aprotic (1M LiClO4/propylene carbonate(PC)) electrolytes showed that additions of Mo:, Si: and Mo: Si:-to ceria increased ion storage ability. The suitability of films as optically passive counter electrodes was demonstrated by making electrochromic cells with asymmetric and symmetric configurations using a Li+ doped ionic conductor (ormolyte®) and an electrochromic tungstophosphoric acid (WPA)/TiO2 gel film. 相似文献

In this project, nanocrystalline SnO2 powders were successfully prepared by (a) citrate sol-gel and (b) direct precipitation methods. Powders were characterized
using thermal analysis techniques (DTA-TG-DSC), X-ray powder Diffraction (XRD), surface area (BET) and electrical conductivity
measurements. XRD patterns showed the presence of the cassiterite structure. SnO2 particles, prepared through sol-gel method exhibit crystallite sizes in the range from 3.1 to 22.3 nm when the gel is heat
treated at different temperatures up to 900°C. SnO2 nanocrystallites prepared by the precipitation method are comparatively larger in size. The higher specific surface area
was obtained for the powder prepared using sol-gel method and the obtained average grain size (d) is relatively large compared with that of the average crystallite size. The powders show a semiconducting behavior with
increasing temperature. The higher conductivity obtained for SnO2 prepared by sol-gel method can be attributed to their smaller average crystallite size. XRD of alumina doped powder exhibits
finer particles than pure SnO2. TEM images showed that the particles are spherical in shape and consist of a core of SnO2 surrounded by a coating of alumina. The calculated surface area was found to decrease with temperature increases. Due to
the effective role of Al2O3 additive as a grain growth inhibitor for the matrix grains, the observed surface area for the coated materials are predominantly
higher than for the uncoated materials.

SnO2 doped with La, Ce, Sm, Zn, Ca, Al and Sb was prepared by sol-gel technique and characterized by TEM, BET, XPS and XAES. The
effect of the dopants on the grain sizes of SnO2 was described and especially the effect of dopants on the distribution of the electronic state density (DESD) of Sn4d orbital
was studied deeply by using X-ray-induced Auger electron spectroscopy (XAES). It was observed that the dopants could influence
not only the grain sizes of SnO2 but also electronic structure of SnO2, as well as the stability of the doped SnO2 samples. The experiment results indicated that the structure and stability of SnO2 film could be improved by the chemical modification of the dopants. 相似文献

Barium strontium titanate (Ba0.65Sr0.35TiO3) ferroelectric thin films have been prepared by sol-gel method on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern indicated that the films were a polycrystalline perovskite structure and
the atomic force microscope (AFM) image showed that the crystallite size and the root mean square roughness (RMS) were 90 nm
and 3.6 nm, respectively. The X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) images showed that Pt consisting in BST thin films was the
metallic state, and the Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) analysed the Pt concentration in different depth profiles of BST
thin films. The result displayed that the Pt diffusion in BST thin film is divided into two regions: near the BST/Pt interface,
the diffusion type was volume diffusion, and far from the interface correspondingly, the diffusion type became grain boundary
diffusion. In this paper, the previous researcher’s result was used to verify our conclusion. 相似文献

Nanoscale SiO2-TiO2 composite thin films with the thickness of about 100 nm were prepared by sol-gel method at room temperature in air. The chemical states of the elements on the surface and near the surface were measured by XPS. The results showed that the Ti on/near the surface of the thin films existed not only as TiO2 but also as Ti2O3. Part of the TiO2 was changed to Ti2O3 after UV irradiation. The crystalline structure of the TiO2 in the SiO2-TiO2 thin films was anatase with the crystallite size of 14–20 nm. It was found that the thin film prepared at room temperature in air has good superhydrophilic property and has strong adherence to the substrate. 相似文献

The preferential formation of a pyrochlore structure is a knotty problem in the preparation of Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PZN)-based thin film materials and its presence is significantly detrimental to the dielectric and piezoelectric properties.
In this study, 40 mol% of PZN was replaced with Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN) for obtaining a perovskite composition around a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB), (1−x)(0.6PZN-0.4PMN)-xPT ((1−x)PZMN-xPT, PT: PbTiO3) where x = 0.23. The thin films with this composition were prepared with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) modi-fied sol-gel method on LaAlO3 substrates. The microstructural evolution of the films on heat treatment was examined with X-ray diffraction. With the aid
of PEG, the formation of the pyrochlore phase was suppressed and the perovskite phase formed directly from the amorphous gel
film. The multilayer films with a thickness around 0.25 μm showed a single perovskite phase without any detectable pyrochlore
structure. Microscopic images showed uniform grain size of a few tens of nanometers. The role of the polymer dramatically
promoting the perovskite phase was investigated with the aid of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermal analysis. The
dielectric constant of the obtained film was 4160 at 1 kHz. The film demonstrated typical ferroelectric hysteresis loops and
exhibited excellent piezoelectric performance. 相似文献

(LiCl)2-Al2O3-SiO2 thin film solid electrolyte was prepared by a sol-gel process with a spin coating technique. The thin film was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ac impedance. The ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte film is comparable to that of the bulk xerogel. The highest conductivity measured by ac impedance is 2.5×10–4 S·cm–1 at 300°C with Ea=0.75 eV. 相似文献

Fe-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 precursor solution was synthesized using bismuth nitrate Bi(NO3)3·5H2O, strontium nitrate Sr(NO3)2, iron nitrate Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, and niobium ethoxide Nb(OC2H5)5 as starting materials, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (C3H8O2) as the solvent. 0.1BiFeO3-0.9SrBi2Nb2O9 thin films were prepared on fused quartz substrates using sol-gel processing. The surface morphology and crystal structure
and optical properties of the thin films were investigated. The thin film annealing at 400°C were found to be amorphous, and
the thin films crystallize to a perovskite structure after a post-deposition annealing at 600°C for 1 h in air. The grain
of thin film was evenly distributed. The thin films exhibit the designed optical transmission, while the optical transition
is indirect in nature. Their optical band gap is about 2.5 eV. 相似文献

The influence of humidity on the electrophysical characteristics of SiO2-γ-Fe2O3 film composites prepared by the sol-gel method was studied. The conductivity of the composites in air at room temperature was largely determined by the conductivity of a layer of adsorbed water. Conductivity changed by several orders of magnitude as air humidity increased from 40 to 98%. The time of the attainment of a stationary conductivity value did not exceed several dozen seconds. SiO2-γ-Fe2O3 film composites could therefore be considered a promising material for high-sensitivity high-speed humidity sensors. 相似文献

In this study, very small (2–5 nm) TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized in an aprotic solvent, N,N-dimethylacetamide, via hydrolysis and condensation of titanium alkoxide at room temperature. The synthesized TiO2 sol showed 30 days of storage stability and could be used to prepare high-refractive-index TiO2-polyimide hybrid thin films by an ex-situ method that involved a spin coating and multistep baking process. The field emission scanning electron microscope image showed a flat and uniform morphology of the hybrid thin film. TiO2 domains were in the nanometer range, thus avoiding light scattering. The refractive index at 633 nm of the hybrid thin film reached 2.05, which suggested potential applications of the film to anti-reflective coatings and optical waveguides. 相似文献

Within the framework of the development of an optical immunosensor, the sol-gel process has been used to prepare a thin film of amorphous silica, deposited by spin coating on a gold-coated glass slide, and possessing chemically active functional groups (SH, NH2...). After activation of the sol-gel film in aqueous buffers by a bifunctional coupling agent, biological molecules such as antibodies could be covalently bonded on or inside the sol-gel film. Therefore, the behavior in aqueous solutions of the functionalized silica thin films has been analysed by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) and guided wave propagation. Results show a modification of the thickness and of the refractive index of the silica film. Pore size range has been deduced by the infiltration of different molecular weight dextran molecules diluted in water into the sol-gel material. Immunosassays have demonstrated biological activity of antibodies which are covalently linked to or entraped in the sol-gel film. 相似文献

TiO2 nanostructures have been treated using different kind of surfactant to modify its optical absorption and morphology. TiO2 nanostructures were prepared via simple method on indium tin oxide (ITO) surface, namely, liquid-phase deposition technique
(LPD) at 50°C. The TiO2 nanostructures film with a thickness of about 236 nm was annealed at 400°C for 1 h in the air to enhance the interconnectivity
of the particles. The dense and compact TiO2 nanoparticle with different shape, particle size and surface morphology was used as a photovoltaic material in a photo-electrochemical
cell of ITO/TiO2/electrolyte/platinum. TiO2 nanostructure films were treated with three different kinds of surfactants: cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), hexamethylenetetramine
(HMT) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). It was found that the film treated with HMT performed best, with a J
sc of 57.5 μA/cm2. In conclusion, optical absorption, band gap and grain size of TiO2 nanostructure influenced the performance of the cell. 相似文献

Preparation of TiO2 Thin Film Photocatalysts by Dip Coating Using a Highly Viscous Solvent 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
TiO2 thin film photocatalysts coated onto soda lime glass were prepared by a dip coating process using a highly viscous solvent. The source of the TiO2 was tetraisopropyl orthotitanate, and -terpineol was used as the solvent. Two types of thin film preparation procedures based on dip coating (a sol-gel system and thermal decomposition system) were used to prepare the samples. TiO2 thin films were obtained after calcination at 450°C for 1 hour. The film thickness obtained with a single dipping was proportional to the viscosity of the dip coating solutions. The obtained thin films were transparent with a thickness of 1 m. The crystal form of the obtained photocatalyst films was anatase alone. The thin films were formed with aggregated nano-sized TiO2 single crystals (7–15 nm). The photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 thin films, as evaluated by the photooxidation of NO (1 ppm) in dry air, was as high as our previous TiO2 thin films prepared by the sol-gel method. 相似文献

Hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) surfactant was used to modify the morphology of TiO2 thin film nanostructure prepared by a simple technique, namely, liquid phase deposition (LPD) during its growth process. In order to obtain various surface morphologies of TiO2 nanostructures, the concentration of HMT was varied from 10 to 100 mM. It was found that with an increase in concentration of HMT, the morphology of TiO2 nanorod in term of its grain size decreases due to the particles agglomeration grown on the surface. The TiO2 nanostructures with various grain sizes were utilized as photovoltaic materials in photoelectrochemical cell measurement. The highest performance of the cell in terms of the short-circuit current density, J sc was 0.069 mA cm?2. This result was achieved from the TiO2 nanorod cell with the smallest grain size, 12 ± 2 nm. The J sc of the cell increased with concentration of HMT. The cell utilizing the TiO2 nanostructure with the smallest grain size possessed the best interfacial contact at the TiO2/electrolyte containing iodide/triiodide redox couple. Thus, the redox reaction was optimised at this interface. 相似文献

A simple sol-gel process is proposed for synthesizing SnO2 nanopowders utilizing normal propanol and isopropanol mixture instead of just using normal alcohols such as ethanol, propanol
or butanol for Sol preparation. No surfactant was used in this Sol preparation process. The structure of sol is studied by
FT-IR-ATR technique. On altering propanol to isopropanol ratio, three different nanopowders were obtained. X-ray powder diffraction,
high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction pattern (SAED) and BET techniques
were used to characterize prepared powders. Results show that smaller grain size was obtained via altering alcohols ratio.
In addition, Merck commercial SnO2 powder was also used as a reference material for comparing purposes; because it has nanometer scale (ca. 60 nm). HRTEM images
show that obtained nanopowders were polycrystalline and their average diameters fall into the range of 6–80 nm. Finally, the
effect of alkoxide ligand size through sol-gel synthesis on product particle size is discussed.

Ordered porous TiO2 films, including TiO2 nanotube arrays, are fabricated by a sol-gel dip-coating approach via ZnO nanorod templates obtained from aqueous solution
approach. The results indicate that the morphologies of ordered porous TiO2 films have been great affected by the sol-gel dip-coating cycle number. Open-ended TiO2 nanotube arrays can be obtained in optimum dip-coating cycle numbers. The TiO2 nanotubes with the inner diameter matching well with the diameters of ZnO nanorods, are well assembled and separate each
other. When the cycle number is less than this optimum value, no intact porous TiO2 film can be obtained. As the cycle number is larger than this optimum value, an ordered porous TiO2 film with many throughout holes is formed. The evolutive mechanism of ordered porous TiO2 films is proposed. 相似文献
