New Sol-Gel Solution with 45 Days Stability for Preparation Silica Thin Films
Authors
Abstract:
As we know sol-gel is one of the most important techniques for thin film preparation. In this paper, high transmission silica thin films have been prepared by dip-coating process from a new silicon-alkoxide solution. The prepared sol was stable for 45 days which is very important to characterize the coating process. The optical properties as a function of aging time, withdrawal rate, and heat treatment parameters (temperature and time) have been studied.

full textPreparation and electrochemical study of cerium–silica sol–gel thin films
Design and development of suitable multilayered systems for delaying corrosion advance in metals requires that both the alteration mechanisms of the metal and the behaviour and properties of the protective coatings be known. Coatings prepared by the sol–gel method provide a good approach as protective layers on metallic surfaces. This kind of coatings can be prepared from pure chemical reagents...
full textEnantioselective, chirally templated sol-gel thin films.
Enantioselective surfactant-templated thin films were fabricated through the sol-gel (SG) process. The enantioselectivity is general in the sense that it discriminates between pairs of enantiomers not used for the imprinting process. The chiral cationic surfactant (-)-N-dodecyl-N-methylephedrinium bromide (1) was used as the surfactant template, and after its extraction chiral domains were crea...

Further expansion of optical communication systems depends strongly on the development of cheap component technologies for functions such as switching, demultiplexing and amplification. Silica-on-silicon is increasingly recognised as the best approach to low cost integrated optics for such applications, but so far the functionality is limited. The purpose of NODES, a basic research collaboratio...
full textThin-film silica sol-gel coatings for neural microelectrodes.
The reactive tissue response of the brain to chronically implanted materials remains a formidable obstacle to stable recording from implanted microelectrodes. One approach to mitigate this response is to apply a bioactive coating in the form of an ultra-porous silica sol-gel, which can be engineered to improve biocompatibility and to enable local drug delivery. The first step in establishing th...
full textStudies on sol-gel dip-coated nanostructured ZnO thin films
Nanostructured ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel dip coating technique. Zinc acetate and ammonium hydroxide were used as precursors and ethanol was as solvent. Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) solution was added drop-wise under vigorous stirring to obtain the sol-gel of different pH (varying from 6.9 to 7.2). ZnO thin films were obtained by dipping the glass substrates for few seconds and then ...
