This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One area of science that has shown an explosive growth over the last few decades is materials science. Inherently by nature products of both basic and applied research, materials make possible life and society as we know it today. Materials, ranging from ceramics to semiconductors to composites, are such that new ones must not only be designed and made ... they must also be characterized in terms of their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Thus, many new state of-the-art techniques involving spectroscopy, microscopy, and other approaches are now routinely used. Modem materials have wide applications in many sectors of technology. Films, for example, constitute an enormous area of materials and are used extensively. Films in tum can be integrated with other systems such as superconducting metal oxides and organic superconductors. Additionally, ceramics can also be synthesized and fabricated as films for different applications. Catalysts, too, can vary widely in both composition and form. The number of applications for catalysts in industry must easily rank as one of the highest number of applications for any class of materials. Catalysis is impOltant for a wide range of activities in industry, from petroleum refining to the synthesis of a large number of industrial feedstock materials. Researchers in this area of materials are constantly trying to unravel new approaches to making better catalysts.

Download or read book Chemical Solution Deposition of Functional Oxide Thin Films written by Theodor Schneller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-24 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first text to cover all aspects of solution processed functional oxide thin-films. Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) comprises all solution based thin- film deposition techniques, which involve chemical reactions of precursors during the formation of the oxide films, i. e. sol-gel type routes, metallo-organic decomposition routes, hybrid routes, etc. While the development of sol-gel type processes for optical coatings on glass by silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide dates from the mid-20th century, the first CSD derived electronic oxide thin films, such as lead zirconate titanate, were prepared in the 1980’s. Since then CSD has emerged as a highly flexible and cost-effective technique for the fabrication of a very wide variety of functional oxide thin films. Application areas include, for example, integrated dielectric capacitors, ferroelectric random access memories, pyroelectric infrared detectors, piezoelectric micro-electromechanical systems, antireflective coatings, optical filters, conducting-, transparent conducting-, and superconducting layers, luminescent coatings, gas sensors, thin film solid-oxide fuel cells, and photoelectrocatalytic solar cells. In the appendix detailed “cooking recipes” for selected material systems are offered.

Download or read book Novel Reactor Design and Method for Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition of Micro and Nano SiO2 x Films in Photovoltaic Applications written by Esmail Issa and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A laboratory-scale reactor and a novel method for the atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) of SiO2-x films are developed. The deposited films are investigated to synthesize heterogeneously upon the substrate surface with the elimination of the so-called gas-phase reaction, hence preventing parasitic oxide particles upon the substrate surface and the reactor inner walls. The films are extensively inspected in terms of chemical and optical properties and utilized for crystalline silicon solar cell applications. Simple reactor design with low safety measures, a wide range of deposition rates, high film resilience, and stability for the intended applications are successfully achieved. The newly developed APCVD SiO2-x is proven to protect the Si wafer surface against texturing in alkaline and acidic solutions. Electroplated metallization schemes of heterojunction and passivated emitter rear contact solar cells are examined with the use of the SiO2-x as a masking layer in the grid electrode-free area.
