Apatite-forming ability of titanium compound nanotube thin films formed on a titanium metal plate in a simulated body fluid

We compared the apatite-forming ability of a sodium titanate nanotube thin film, an anatase-type titanium dioxide nanotube thin film, and a silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film, in simulated body fluid. The ability of the silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film is slightly higher than that of the anatase-type titanium dioxide nanotube thin film and significantly higher than that of the sodium titanate nanotube thin film. The high ability of the silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film is a newly observed phenomenon, which is probably due to the crystal structure of silver titanate – specifically, to the surface atomic arrangement, the large amount of Ti–OH formed on the nanotube surface, or both. The anatase-type titanium dioxide nanotube thin film and the silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film may have bright prospects for future use in implant materials such as artificial joints. The silver nanoparticle/silver titanate nanotube nanocomposite thin film is particularly promising for its antibacterial properties.

Investigation on the photophysical processes in nanosized photocatalytic thin films using planar solid-state devices

The photophysical processes for three nanosized photocatalytic oxides, titanium dioxide (TiO₂) thin film, tin dioxide (SnO₂) thin film, and layered TiO₂/SnO₂ thin film, have been examined in planar solid-state devices. It is found that, for SnO₂ thin film, the dissociation of the photogenerated excitons can take place both on the film surface and inside the film, while for TiO₂ thin film, almost all excitons dissociate on the film surface. Such a difference is proposed to account for the higher photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ over SnO₂, since it is experimentally shown that the excitons dissociate in SnO₂ thin film as efficiently as they do in TiO₂ thin film. For layered TiO₂/SnO₂ thin film, when it is illuminated by a beam of UV light, it is suggested that there exists a local electrostatic field at the SnO₂ side of the interface, mainly formed by those holes efficiently photogenerated and then localized in SnO₂ thin film. The photo-induced local electrostatic field is believed to facilitate hole–electron separation on TiO₂ thin film and therefore increase the photocatalytic activity of the layered thin film over single TiO₂ thin film.

A microfluidic electrochemical detection technique for assessing stability of thin films and emulsions

An experimental technique is developed for assessing stability of thin liquid films by application of electric potential to compress the liquid film and to simultaneously measure the electrical properties of the system. The concept involves creating a thin film at the intersection of two microchannels etched onto a glass substrate. A ramped DC potential difference is applied across the film, which develops an electrical stress across the film. Increasing the potential to a critical value leads to the rupture of the film. The critical potential is used to assess the stability of the liquid film. Small channel dimensions in this microfluidic platform allow characterization of thin films formed between micron-sized droplets representing systems with high capillary pressures, analysis of which are typically beyond the scope of conventional thin film characterization techniques. The results of DC potential breakdown of films show that critical potential can be considered as a measure of thin film stability.

Dynamic instability of a sol-gel-derived thin film

We present a study on the dynamic instability of a sol-gel-derived (SG) thin film on a nonwettable substrate. Because of the structural instability accompanied by syneresis stress in a film deposited on the substrate, there exists a regular distribution of dewetting patterns required to relieve the in-plane stress, such as holes in the earlier stages, and droplets accompanying a regular polygonal distribution in the later stages of the dynamic instability. The characteristic length scales in each stage scaled linearly with the film thickness during the duration of dewetting. For the formation of holes during the earlier stages of rupture of the film, the dewetting velocity was analyzed with a viscous sintering theory of a SG thin film. In the earlier stages of the dynamic instability, the dewetting velocity decreases with increasing dewetting time and increases with increasing the initial film thickness, which indicates that the SG thin film behaves partially like a slipping polymer thin film. In the final times of the film rupture, the radius of the hole has a linear relationship with the film thickness, and the growth rate of the hole (dewetting velocity) is nearly constant, regardless of the film thickness. These dewetting behaviors indicate that the SG thin film in the final times of the rupture is somewhat similar to nonslipping film. From these observations, we found that the dewetting behavior of a SG thin film has ambivalent dewetting characteristics of slipping and nonslipping films and that a SG thin film is not a purely viscous film.

Fabrication of metal structures with nanometer-scale lateral dimensions by sectioning using a microtome

This Communication describes the fabrication of planar structures comprising metallic features with nanometer-scale lateral dimensions in polymer prepared by sectioning a thin metallic film, embedded in a polymer matrix, in a plane perpendicular to the metallic film. This procedure converts a structure that is thin along the z-axis into a structure that is thin along the x-axis. The embedded thin metal film is still conductive and can be used as a nanoelectrode. The structure and composition of the exposed nanoedge can be easily tuned by changing the structure of the surface supporting the metal film, and the composition and the thickness of that film.
