Organic Thin Film Transistors with Polyvinylpyrrolidone / Nickel Oxide Sol-Gel Derived Nanocomposite Insulator
Polyvinylpyrrolidone / Nickel oxide (PVP/NiO) dielectrics were fabricated with sol-gel method using 0.2 g of PVP at different working temperatures of 80, 150 and 200 ºC. Structural properties and surface morphology of the hybrid films were investigated by X- Ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) respectively. Energy dispersive X-ray spec...
متن کاملAmorphous Si thin film based photocathodes with high photovoltage for efficient hydrogen production.
An amorphous Si thin film with TiO2 encapsulation layer is demonstrated as a highly promising and stable photocathode for solar hydrogen production. With platinum as prototypical cocatalyst, a photocurrent onset potential of 0.93 V vs RHE and saturation photocurrent of 11.6 mA/cm(2) are measured. Importantly, the a-Si photocathodes exhibit impressive photocurrent of ~6.1 mA/cm(2) at a large pos...
متن کاملNonepitaxial Thin-Film InP for Scalable and Efficient Photocathodes.
To date, some of the highest performance photocathodes of a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell have been shown with single-crystalline p-type InP wafers, exhibiting half-cell solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiencies of over 14%. However, the high cost of single-crystalline InP wafers may present a challenge for future large-scale industrial deployment. Analogous to solar cells, a thin-film approa...
متن کاملLow-density polymer thin film formation in supercritical carbon dioxide
We report a method for producing stable low-density polymer films by using supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2). Two different molecular weight polystyrene films with various thicknesses were exposed to scCO2 along the density fluctuation ridge in P – T phase diagram. The swollen structures could be then frozen by flash evaporation of CO2 without forming additional voids. X-ray reflectivity dat...
متن کاملAu Interaction with CeO2 (111) Thin Film
The interaction of gold with CeO2(111) layer was investigated with photeelectron spectroscopy (PES) and by means of resonant photoelectron spectroscopy (RPES). Gold was deposited in steps onto a 1.5 nm thick CeO2(111) layer, epitaxially grown on a Cu(111) substrate. The RPES showed a partial Ce → Ce reduction, observed as a resonant enhancement of the 4f level of the Ce species. This can be exp...
