A wet-chemical method for increasing the number of quantum dots (QDs) per unit surface area of TiO2 was developed. High density QD surface coating was induced by a surface charge controlled SILAR method, which led to a sixfold increase in photocurrent density from 2.15 mA cm(-2) to 15.03 mA cm(-2) in a QD-sensitized solar cell based on a Hg-doped PbS sensitized 2.4 μm-thick TiO2 film.

In this report, zinc oxide thin film was successfully deposited on a glass substrate by using simple and low-cost technique i.e. modified Successive Ion Layer Adsorption Reaction (SILAR). Prepared characterized for its physical chemical properties XRD diffraction, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), UV-VIS spectroscopy, Raman Fourier transf...

In this work, CuO films were produced by the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method. The oxidation process was applied to in three different mediums as air, oxygen argon. kept at 400 °C for 2 hours each medium during process. effect of selected on physical properties investigated. This study showed that can vary significantly mediums. XRD studies reveal all are polycrysta...

ZnO and 2% Fe doped ZnO photocatalytic nanomaterials were successfully synthesized by successive ionic layer adsorption and the reaction (SILAR) method. The characterizations of these nanomaterials were carried out using XRD, SEM and EDX techniques. XRD study shows that the samples have a hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure, size of which is in the range 21-23 nm. SEM shows nanoflakes or nano ...

Ag2S/CdS/TiO2 hybrid nanotube array films (Ag2S/CdS/TNTs) were prepared by selectively depositing a narrow-gap semiconductor-Ag2S (0.9 eV) quantum dots (QDs)-in the local domain of the CdS/TiO2 nanotube array films by spotting sample method (SSM). The improvement of sunlight absorption ability and photocurrent density of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotube array films (TNTs) which were obtained by...

We report the preparation of TiO2 nanotubes coupled with a narrow bandgap semiconductor, i.e., Bi2S3, to improve the photocathodic protection property of TiO2 for metals under visible light. Bi2S3/TiO2 nanotube films were successfully synthesized using the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method. The morphology and structure of the composite films were studied by scanning ...
