Aerosol-assisted CVD of thioether-functionalised indium aminoalkoxides

چکیده
ABSTRACT Thioether-functionalised indium aminoalcoholates have been used as single-source precursors in aerosol-assisted CVD processes. The obtained In2O3-x S x oxysulphide deposits show either a single indium sulphide phase for deposits with high sulphide content [>75% (S/(S + O)) for the t-butyl derivatives] or pronounced phase separation in indium oxide and indium sulphide for lower sulphide content [<62% (S/(S + O)) for the n-butyl derivatives]. In addition to thin films, polycrystalline 1D structures are obtained at slightly modified synthesis conditions. The materials are analysed by EDX, XRD, XPS, SEM, and TEM. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

Electrostatic and non-covalent interactions in dicationic imidazolium-sulfonium salts with mixed anions.
A series of thioether-functionalised imidazolium salts have been prepared and characterized. Subsequent reaction of the thioether-functionalised imidazolium salts with iodomethane affords imidazolium-sulfonium salts composed of doubly charged cations and two different anions. Imidazolium-sulfonium salts containing a single anion type are obtained either by a solvent extraction method or by anio...
متن کاملAerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition of gas sensitive SnO2 and Au-functionalised SnO2 nanorods via a non-catalysed vapour solid (VS) mechanism
Tin oxide nanorods (NRs) are vapour synthesised at relatively lower temperatures than previously reported and without the need for substrate pre-treatment, via a vapour-solid mechanism enabled using an aerosol-assisted chemical vapour deposition method. Results demonstrate that the growth of SnO2 NRs is promoted by a compression of the nucleation rate parallel to the substrate and a decrease of...
متن کاملAu nanoparticle-functionalised WO3 nanoneedles and their application in high sensitivity gas sensor devices.
A new method of synthesising nanoparticle-functionalised nanostructured materials via Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition (AACVD) has been developed. Co-deposition of Au nanoparticles with WO(3) nanoneedles has been used to deposit a sensing layer directly onto gas sensor substrates providing devices with a six-fold increase in response to low concentrations of a test analyte (ethanol).
متن کاملIndium oxide nanostructures
In this report we review the growth of indium oxide (In2O3) nanostructures, including octahedral nanocrystals (NCs), nanobelts (NBs), nanosheets (NSs), and nanowires (NWs), by hot-wall chemical vapor deposition (HW-CVD). This system is highly controllable, allowing the user to easily access different growth regimes – each corresponding to the growth of a different nanostructure – by changing gr...
متن کاملTrends in Precursor Design for Conventional and Aerosol-assisted CVD of High-Tc Superconductors
Conventional MOCVD techniques require molecules displaying volatility and constant vapor pressure. Metal oxide precursors, i.e., b-diketonates, or classical or functionalized metal alkoxides are mostly solids. The various approaches used to tailor volatility are discussed with barium derivatives as an example. The relationships between sublimation temperature and molecular weight suggest that v...
