Thin film of ZnAl2O4:Eu3+ synthesized by a non-alkoxide precursor sol-gel method

The production of Ceramic Thin Films by Sol-Gel Method

The purpose of this work was to production of ceramic thin films by using of Sol-Gel process. For this purpose deposition of SiO2 on substrates of soda-lime glasses has been carried out. Coating treatments on prepared specimen were conducted in a Sol solution by means of dipping at various times. After drying and performing appropriate heat treatment on each sample, the thickness of coated laye...

Sol‐gel silicate thin‐film electronic properties

BaFe12O19 thin film grown by an aqueous sol-gel process

In this communication we present a new sol–gel route to obtain high quality BaFe12O19 thin films. X-ray analysis confirmed the crystal structure with a crystal size of 32 nm. Atomic force microscopy images determined the film thickness to be around 250 nm and a roughness factor of less than 40 nm where the grain size averaged around 150 nm. SQUID magnetometer data shows a magnetic behavior simi...

Synthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanostructured Thin Film by Sol- Gel Method and Evaluation of Gas Sensing Properties

Ethanol (C2H6O) sensitivity of zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film has been studied in present work. Semiconductor thin films of zinc oxide (ZnO) were deposited onto alkali-free glass substrates by the sol–gel method and dip-coating technique. The ZnO sol was synthesized by dissolving zinc acetate dehydrate in ethanol, and then adding Tetra ethanol-amine.  The as-coated films were preheated at 150 ºC fo...
