Photoactive Thin-Film Structures of Curcumin, TiO2 and ZnO

Exploration of ZnO and ZnMgO/ZnO Thin Film Transistors

ZnO-based transparent thin-film transistors

Highly transparent ZnO-based thin-film transistors ~TFTs! are fabricated with optical transmission ~including substrate! of ;75% in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Current– voltage measurements indicate n-channel, enhancement-mode TFT operation with excellent drain current saturation and a drain current on-to-off ratio of ;10. Threshold voltages and channel mobilities of de...

Optoelectronic Properties of ZnSe, ITO, TiO2 and ZnO Thin Films

Zinc selenide (ZnSe) a II-VI compound semiconductor with cubic zinc blende structure and a direct bandgap of 2.7 eV is found to be a very promising material for optoelectronic devices (Venkatachalam et al., 2007a). Semiconductor heterostructures employing zinc selenide and related alloys are an option for the production of optoelectronic devices emitting in the blue – green spectral range (Haas...

Preparation and proposed mechanism of ZnO Nanostructure Thin Film on Glass with Highest c-axis Orientation

In this paper, ZnO thin film is deposited on slide glass substrate using the sol-gel process. Presenting well-defined orientation of ZnO thin films Nanostructure were obtained by dip coating of zinc acetate dihydrate, monoethanolamine (MEA), de-ionized water and isopropanol alcohol. The annealed ZnO thin films were transparent ca 85-90% in visible range with an absorption edges at about 375 nm....

Thin wetted film cylindrical flow photo reactor for the degradation of Procion blue H-B dye over TiO2 and ZnO.

A thin wetted film cylindrical flow reactor was fabricated for photocatalytic oxidation of Procion blue H-B dye in textile washwater with the suspensions of TiO2 and ZnO. The disappearance of colour and organic reduction were studied in terms of the removal of colour and chemical oxygen demand (COD). Operating parameters such as effect of pH, UV irradiation with and without catalyst, initial co...
