Irradiation induced electrical conductivity in polymeric thin films
نویسندگان
چکیده
Scientific objectives of this project are: (1) To produce and characterise uniaxially charge conducting ion tracks in thin polymeric films with high energy ion beam irradiation. (2) To understand the charge transport mechanisms within and as well as across ion tracks, which have been identified and shown to occur via electron transport across the carbon clusters that were formed within these ion tracks. (3) To evaluate their application in microelectronic devices particularly as active and passive components.

Building up Graphene-Based Conductive Polymer Composite Thin Films Using Reduced Graphene Oxide Prepared by γ-Ray Irradiation
In this paper, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) was prepared by means of γ -ray irradiation of graphene oxide (GO) in a water/ethanol mix solution, and we investigated the influence of reaction parameters, including ethanol concentration, absorbed dose, and dose rate during the irradiation. Due to the good dispersibility of the RGO in the mix solution, we built up flexible and conductive composite ...
متن کاملEffects of ion irradiation on conductijvity of CrSi2 thin films
Electrical resistivity measurements are used to study damage in CrSi2 thin films induced by Ne, Ar, or Xe ion irradiation over a fluence range of 10-10 ions cm• Irradiation produces a factor of 5-12 increase in film conductivity at the higher fluences. The influence of defect generation and recombination is evident. We speculate that formation of a compound defect is a dominant factor enhancing...

In this study, in order to achieve effective coating of the homogeneous titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film, UV irradiation pre-treatment was carried out to activate PC surfaces before coating. Sol-gel-based nanocrystalline TiO2 thin films were prepared by employing tetrabutyl-titanate as a precursor. Nanocrystalline TiO2 thin films were deposited by sol-gel spin coating on the treated substrates...
