Compact MnCoS thin films on a nickel foam (NF) substrate were prepared by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method, two surfactants (SDS CTAB) used to improve the wettability of NF. The characterized scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). supercapacitive properties evaluated cyclic voltammetry (CV),...

Supercapacitors (SCs) have received much interest due to their enhanced electrochemical performance, superior cycling life, excellent specific power, and fast charging–discharging rate. The energy density of SCs is comparable batteries; however, power cyclability are higher by several orders magnitude relative batteries, making them a flexible compromising storage alternative, provided proper d...

Undoped and cobalt (Co) doped tin oxide (SnO2) films were prepared onto glass slides via the successive ionic layer adsorption reaction (SILAR). Variable characterization methods applied to examine effects of impurities on physical properties SnO2 films. The performed measurements X-ray diffraction, Ultraviolet–visible spectrometer, Photoluminescence, Raman. No peak ascribed Co, SnO, or Sn was ...

Thin copper selenide films were synthesized on polyamide sheets using the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method at three different temperatures. It was found that elevating temperature of solution led to creation with features. X-ray diffraction characterization revealed all crystallized into a cubic Cu2−xSe, but crystallinity parameters. With temperature, grain size inc...

In this study, Bi2S3 sensitive layer has been grown on the surface of WO3 nanoplate arrays via an in situ approach. The characterization of samples were carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis). The results show that the Bi2S3 layer is uniformly formed on the sur...

The thickness and porosity of TiO2 mesoporous film were optimized for better distribution of quantum dots to enhance the performance of CdS/CdSe quantum dot cosensitized solar cells. The CdS and CdSe quantum dots were prepared on TiO2 mesoporous film through a successive ion layer absorption and reaction (SILAR) method and a chemical bath deposition (CBD) method, respectively. It was found that...

The facile and economical electrochemical and successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) methods have been employed in order to prepare manganese oxide (MnO2) and iron oxide (Fe2O3) thin films, respectively with the fine optimized nanostructures on highly flexible stainless steel sheet. The symmetric and asymmetric flexible-solid-state supercapacitors (FSS-SCs) of nanostructured (na...
