چکیده
A facile layer-by-layer deposition process is developed to fabricate highly-transparent superhydrophobic coatings, which comprise the underlying antireflective nanoporous silica layer and the top transparent superhydrophobic SiO(2) nanoparticle layer.

A facile approach to robust superhydrophobic 3D coatings via connective-particle formation using the electrospraying process.
This work demonstrates a facile fabrication method to produce superhydrophobic coatings on chemically distinct materials using the electrospraying process. Coatings are mechanically robust, three-dimensional, and formed using a single fabrication step.
متن کاملFabrication and Characterization of Chitosan/Alginate Multilayer Composite Membrane Supported by a Porous Poly (Acrylonitrile) Substrate for Pervaporation Dehydration of Alcohol
Chitosan (CS) and alginate (Alg) are complementary in their membrane performance, but the combination of them is normally difcult to use due to their different solubilities. Layer-by-Layer deposition appears to be an effective method for improving the separation efciency of a composite membrane. In this work, the polyelectrolyte multilayer composite membranes (PEMCMs) wer...
متن کاملDesigning and Fabrication of Electrochromic Windows Using Tungsten Oxide Films Prepared Through Sol-gel Coating on a Glass
In this study, a sol-gel peroxotungstic acid sol was employed to deposit tungsten oxide (WO3) films by the spin-coating technique. In view of smart window applications, electrochromic windows were then designed and fabricated using a thin tungsten oxide film. For this purpose, Glass/ FTO/ WO3/ electrolyte/ FTO/Glass could be of use due to its special structure that consists of an electrochromic...
متن کاملInfluence of Thickness and Number of Silver Layers in the Electrical and Optical Properties of ZnO/Ag/ZnO/Ag/ZnO ultra-Thin Films Deposited on the Glass for Low-Emissivity Applications
We report on transparent ZnO/Ag/ZnO and ZnO/Ag/ZnO/Ag/ZnO thin-films were deposited on the glass substrate by RF and DC sputtering for ZnO and Ag targets, respectively. The electrical and optical properties of the single and double Low Emissivity coatings were investigated with respect to the deposition time of Ag mid layer. The visible transmittance remains about 65% for single and 45% for...
متن کاملFabrication Of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells With In2S3 Buffer Layer By Two Stage Process
Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin films (CIGS) on metallic substrate (titanium, molybdenum, aluminum, stainless steel) were prepared by a two-step selenization of Co-evaporated metallic precursors in Se-containing environment under N2 gas flow. Structural properties of prepared thin film were studied. To characterize the optical quality and intrinsic defect nature low-temperature photoluminescence, were perfor...
