Conductive and porous polythiophene (PTh) films, which are used as host matrices for Pt and Pt/Pd nanoparticles, are synthesized electrochemically. PTh films containing nanometre-sized Pt and Pt/Pd bimetallic particles are electro synthesized on an indium tin oxide (ITO) glass plate by voltammetric cycling between –0.1 to +1V (Vs Ag/AgCl / 2M NaCl). The ensuing PTh electrode, modified with nano...

Titanium carbide (TiC) nanoparticles are readily deposited onto tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) electrodes in the form of thin porous films. The nanoparticle deposits are electrically highly conducting and electrochemically active. In aqueous media (at pH 7) and at applied potentials positive of 0.3 V vs. SCE partial anodic surface oxidation and formation (at least in part) of novel core-shell TiC...

In the present work, gold nanoparticles/indium tin oxide (AuNPs/ITO) thin films were analyzed for pH sensing application based on extended gate field-effect transistor (EGFET). The AuNPs synthesized through pulsed laser ablation in liquid (PLAL) technique. Afterwards, deposited onto ITO film by electrospinning method. characterized using transmission electron microscope (TEM) and UV–Vis spectro...

Polyaniline/ZnO nanocomposite thin films were prepared via an electrochemical synthesis route on ITO coated glass substrates. ZnO nanoparticles were uniformly dispersed in to the polyaniline matrix. Interaction between ZnO nanoparticle and polyaniline has been studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, PL spectroscopy, AFM and I-V characteristics. The ammonia gas sen...

Abstract TiO x -based resistive switching devices have recently attracted attention as a promising candidate for next-generation non-volatile memory devices.

We report here the fabrication of sputter-deposited Au nanoparticles on ITO (Sn-doped indium oxide)-coated glass substrate. The effect varying annealing parameters, viz., time and temperature in conjunction with thickness parameters has been thoroughly investigated. Synthesized were characterized using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), Rutherford backscattering (RBS) measu...

Carbon nitride (CNx) is a light-absorber with excellent performance in photocatalytic suspension systems, but the activity of CNx photoelectrodes has remained low. Here, cyanamide-functionalized (NCNCNx) was co-deposited ITO nanoparticles on 1.8 Å thick alumina-coated FTO electrode. Transient absorption spectroscopy and impedance measurements support that acts as conductive binder improves elec...

Ž . Ž Three-dimensional multistructure assemblies consisting of gold nanoparticles and a sulfur-containing ruthenium II tris 2,2-bi. pyridine derivative were fabricated on an ITO electrode by their alternate self-assembling. Absorption spectra of the assemblies showed immobilization of the gold surface and the ruthenium complex. Broadening and red shift of the plasmon band were observed by incr...

Quasi-ordered, highly dispersed, gold nanoclusters of tightly controlled particle size were synthesized by dip-coating substrates with gold precursors encapsulated by block-copolymer micelles. By this method, gold particles (4.8 +/- 1.3 nm) were deposited on ITO-coated glass and shown to be catalytically active for electro-oxidation of carbon monoxide. XPS confirmed the catalytically active par...

The refractive index and extinction coefficient of a triiodide perovskite absorber (TPA) were obtained by fitting the transmittance spectra of TPA/PEDOT:PSS/ITO/glass using the transfer matrix method. Cu nanoplasmonic structures were designed to enhance the exciton generation in the TPA and to simultaneously reduce the film thickness of the TPA. Excitons were effectively generated at the interf...
