TiO 2 thin films were prepared on SiO 2/Si(100) substrates by the sol–gel process. XRD results indicate that the major phase of TiO 2 thin films is anatase. The surface morphology and cross-section are observed by FE-SEM. The surface of thin films is dense, free of cracks and flat. The average grain size is about 60–100 nm in diameter. The thickness of single layer TiO 2 thin films is about 60 nm, which increases with the concentration of solution. Ellipsometric angles ψ, Δ are investigated by spectroscopic ellipsometry. The optical constant and the thickness of TiO 2 thin films are fitted according to Cauchy dispersion model. The results reveal that the refractive index and the extinction coefficient of TiO 2 thin films in wavelength above 800 nm are about 2.09–2.20 and 0.026, respectively. The influences of processing conditions on the optical constants and thicknesses of TiO 2 thin films are also discussed. 相似文献

Co–Nb 2O 5–SiO 2 catalysts were prepared using three different sol–gel procedures: (i) the colloidal sol–gel method using NbCl 5 and SiCl 4 as precursors; (ii) the polymeric sol–gel method using niobium ethoxide and tetraethyl-orthosilicate (TEOS); (iii) an intermediate procedure between the colloidal and polymeric sol–gel method in which the precursors were those utilized in the CSG but dissolved in a mixture of anhydrous ethanol and CCl 4. In all procedures, the elimination of the solvent carried out between 80 and 110°C was followed by a reduction in hydrogen flow (30 ml min −1) at 773 K. Following these procedures, samples containing 10 wt.% Co and 15 wt.% niobium oxide (expressed as Nb 2O 5) were obtained. The characterization of the catalysts was performed using various techniques: N 2 adsorption and desorption curves at 77 K, NH 3- and H 2-chemisorption, TPO, XPS, XRD, and solid state 1H MAS-NMR. Hydrogenolysis of butane was evaluated. The low reaction rates are assigned to the effect of the metal size, whereas the isobutane selectivity as well as the relatively high stability is due to the acidity of the support. 相似文献

TiO 2–SiO 2 mixed oxides were prepared by sol–gel processes with one-stage (mix up fully hydrolyzed titania- and silica-sol), two-stage (with pre-hydrolysis) and modified two-stage synthesis routes. The photoresponse and AC impedance characterization of the derived catalysts are studied and correlated for the first time with the photocatalytic activities in water decomposition under UV illumination. Synergistic effects in terms of photocatalytic activity and electronic properties including band-gap energy, flat band potential and doping density were observed on atomically mixing TiO 2 and SiO 2 by the two-stage synthesis route. Meanwhile, the decline of photocurrent density were found on TiO 2–SiO 2 relative to bare TiO 2, which could be attributed to low quality crystalline structure of the former compared to that of the latter. The superior photocatalytic performance of TiO 2–SiO 2 is ascribed to the higher flat band potential, band-gap energy, and doping density than those of bare TiO 2. 相似文献

The local structure and the photoactivity of B 2O 3–SiO 2/TiO 2 ternary mixed oxides (SiO 2 content was fixed as 30 at.% with respect to TiO 2) was investigated by using XRD, FT-IR, BET, UV-vis spectra, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurement. In FT-IR analysis, boron was incorporated into the framework of titania matrix with replacing Ti---O---Si with Si---O---B or Ti---O---B bonds. Also, paramagnetic species such as O − and Ti 3+ defects were formed by the boron incorporation. In SiO 2/TiO 2 mixed oxides, a blue shift in the light absorption band was observed due to the quantization of band structure. All B 2O 3–SiO 2/TiO 2 samples had pure anatase phase and no rutile phase was formed even though the calcination temperature was over 900 °C. Incorporating boron oxides of more than 10% enlarges the grain size of anatase phase and causes a red shift of the light absorption spectrum. The surface area was monotonically decreased with increasing the content of boron content. As a result, the photoactivity of B 2O 3–SiO 2/TiO 2 ternary mixed oxides was greatly influenced by the content of boron oxide. The highest photoactivity (g moles/min l) was obtained when the boron content was 5% and seven times higher than that of silica/titania binary mixed oxide. In addition, the specific photoactivity (g moles/m 2 l) was maximum still at 5%. It was concluded that the large reduction of surface area, the change of band structure, and more formation of bulk Ti 3+ sites are responsible for the deterioration in the photoactivity of B 2O 3–SiO 2/TiO 2 ternary mixed oxides when the content of boron is over 10%, although their crystallinity was enhanced by increasing the calcination temperature with keeping anatase phase. 相似文献

The compositionally graded and homogeneous Ba(Zr xTi 1−x)O 3 (BZT) thin films were fabricated on LaNiO 3 (LNO) buffered Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si and Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates by a sol–gel deposition method, respectively. These films crystallized into a single perovskite phase. The BZT thin films deposited on LaNiO 3/Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates had a highly (1 0 0) preferred orientation and exhibited a preferred (1 1 0) orientation when the thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates. The LNO and Ba(Zr 0.30Ti 0.70) served as seed layer on Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates and analyze the relationship of seed layer, microstructure and dielectric behavior of the thin films. The compositionally graded thin films from BaTiO 3 to BaZr 0.35Ti 0.65O 3 were fabricated on LNO/Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates. The tunability behavior of compositionally graded films was analyzed in order to produce optimum effective dielectric properties. The dielectric constant of BaZr xTi 1−xO 3 compositionally graded thin films showed weak temperature dependence. This kind of thin films has a potential in a fabrication of a temperature stable tunable device. 相似文献

TiO 2 nanocomposite films with different concentrations of TiO 2 MT-150A nanoparticles were immobilized on glass substrates using a dip coating process. The crystalline structure and surface chemical state of nanocomposite film properties were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. The specific surface area and morphology of TiO 2 MT-150A nanoparticles were evaluated by the BET method and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM). The photocatalytic activities of films were evaluated by the methyl orange decoloring rate. XPS measurements showed that the oxygen amount (%) was related to the film composition. The composite film with 10 g/L MT-150A loading yielded the highest amount of surface oxygen (26.82%) and TiO 2 rutile showed the lowest amount of surface oxygen (13.67%) in the form of surface hydroxyl groups. The remaining oxygen was identified as lattice oxygen. In addition, the nanocomposite film with 10 g/L MT-150A loading yielded the highest photocatalytic activity. 相似文献

Lead zirconate titanate—Pb(Zr 0.45Ti 0.55)O 3 thin films are grown on Pt 1 1 1/Ti/SiO 2/Si 1 0 0 substrates by a sol–gel method with 1 0 0/0 0 1 and 1 1 1 preferred orientations. Film orientation was controlled mainly by the annealing process and temperature. Films with 1 0 0/0 0 1 orientation consist of a uniform microstructure with micron size grains, whereas films with 1 1 1 orientation contain sub-micron grains. The electrical properties were influenced markedly by the microstructure and orientation of the films. The 1 1 1 oriented films exhibit a square-like hysteresis loop with remnant polarization ( Pr) reaching 46 μC/cm 2 under 550 kV/cm, whereas 1 0 0/0 0 1 oriented films have a Pr of 20 μC/cm 2 with more slim hysteresis curves. Aging of the precursor solutions resulted in films growing with 1 0 0/0 0 1 texture and displaying inferior electrical properties. 相似文献

TiO 2 films deposited by various coating techniques were investigated for self-cleaning applications. The optical coating layers of TiO 2 films prepared from a sol–gel precursor were deposited on glass substrates using spin coating, dip coating and screen printing techniques. Effects of film deposition techniques on crystal structure, microstructure, thickness, photocatalytic activity, hydrophilicity and optical properties of the films were investigated using XRD, AFM, SEM, surface profilometer, UV–vis spectrophotometer and contact angle measurement. Dip coating the TiO 2 optical film two and three times resulted in superhydrophilic surfaces. Increasing number of dipping times was found to increase the photocatalytic activity. 相似文献

To develop a high strength machinable glass–ceramic through pressureless sintering, the glassy compositions were obtained by mixing a mica-based frit and a frit in the SiO 2–CaO–Na 2O system. According to XRD results, the glass compositions mainly crystallized into phlogopite and diopside after sintering. The optimum sintered glass–ceramic with desirable mechanical properties, machinability and sinterability was achieved by addition of 30 wt.% SiO 2–CaO–Na 2O glass powder to 70 wt.% mica glass composition. SEM results confirmed presence of needle-like diopside crystals which played a reinforcement role to the platelet phlogopite and glassy matrix combination. The measurements showed bending strength and fracture toughness enhanced up to 144.6 ± 17.6 MPa and 1.7 ± 0.2 MPa m 1/2, respectively. 相似文献

Nickel-doped titanium oxide thin films were prepared on soda–lime–silica glass substrates by using a metal naphthenate. Films prefired at 500 °C for 10 min were finally annealed at 600 °C for 30 min in air. Contact angle measurement was used for analyzing hydrophilic/hydrophobic conversion. NiTiO 3, rutile and anatase peaks were obtained for the film after nickel doping. The film containing nickel showed a shift towards the visible in the absorption threshold. 相似文献

Aluminium titanate films thicker than 0.5 μm have been synthesized by sol–gel methods. The films have been deposited via repetitive dip-coating on silicon wafers and their thermal stability has been tested as a function of the annealing time and temperature. The sol–gel approach has allowed the formation of the aluminium titanate phase at temperatures (700 °C) much lower than those necessary for solid-state reactions (1450 °C). Magnesium oxide has been used to improve the thermal stability of the films at high temperatures. The behavior of samples prepared with two different Mg content, i.e. Mg 0.2Al 1.6Ti 0.8O 5 and Mg 0.6Al 0.8Ti 1.6O 5, has been studied. The films have proven to be stable at 1150 °C, for up to 90 h. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has shown that after firing at 500 °C the surface chemical composition of the films is in accordance with the nominal one, whilst at higher annealing temperatures some differences, attributed to diffusion effects, have been observed. 相似文献

Ammonium polyacrylate (NH 4PA) was introduced into powdered mixtures consisting of anatase-structured TiO 2 nanoparticles and silicon alkoxide precursors at the sol level, and the rheological behavior of the mixtures was examined under various solid loadings (φ=0.05–0.13 in volumetric ratios), shear rates (
s −1) and NH 4PA concentrations. The alkoxide precursors were mixtures of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS, Si(OC 2H 5) 4), ethyl alcohol (C 2H 5OH), H 2O and HCl in a constant [H 2O]/[TEOS] ratio of 11. The nanoparticle–sol mixtures generally exhibited a pseudoplastic flow behavior over the shear-rate regime examined. The NH 4PA appeared to serve as an effective surfactant which facilitates the suspension flow by reducing the flow resistance at low NH 4PA concentrations. At φ=0.10, a viscosity reduction ca. 85% was found at
s −1 when the NH 4PA concentration was held at 2.5 wt.% of the solids. As the NH 4PA exceeded a critical level, e.g., [NH 4PA]≥3.0 wt.%, the NH 4PA acted as a catalyst which quickly turned the TiO 2–silica sol mixtures (φ=0.10) into a gelled structure, resulted in a pronounced increase of mixture viscosity. The maximum solids concentration ( φm) of the mixtures was experimentally determined from a derivative of relative viscosity, i.e., (1−η r−1/2)– φ dependence. The estimated φm increased from 0.127 to 0.165 when NH 4PA of 0.5 wt.% was introduced into the TiO 2–silica sol mixtures. 相似文献

Tin oxide–silica composite aerogels were successfully prepared with a co-fed precursor sol–gel process. The crystallinity of the tin oxide nanoparticles, embedded in the mesoporous SiO 2 network, was improved with increasing the post-reaction thermal treatment temperature. The composite aerogels exhibited a rich photoluminescence (PL) emission contributed by both SnO 2 and SiO 2. The PL peak of 346 nm was from the near band edge emission of the tin oxide nanoparticles, and the ones located at 310 and 476 nm were attributable to the oxygen deficiencies of the silica network. Three more emission peaks, 387, 432, and 522 nm, were observed, with the 387 nm peak contributed by the oxygen vacancies V O++, the 432 nm peak by the Sn interstitials, and the 522 nm peak by the oxygen vacancies V O+, respectively, of the tin oxide nanoparticles. The intensities of these three defect level emissions were found decreased, as compared to that of the near band edge emission, with increasing the post-reaction thermal treatment temperature as the tin oxide crystallinity improved. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with diameter of approximately 10 nm were prepared by the reduction of silver nitrate using green synthesis, an eco-friendly approach. The synthesized Ag NPs were homogeneously deposited on silicon dioxide (SiO 2) particles modified with dopamine, leading to the formation of SiO 2/polydopamine (PD)/Ag nanocomposites (NCs) with a core–shell–satellite structure investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The Ag content of SiO 2/PD/Ag NCs determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry was approximately 5.92 wt%. The antibacterial properties of both Ag NPs and SiO 2/PD/Ag NCs against Vibrio natriegens ( V. natriegens) and Erythrobacter pelagi sp. nov. ( E. pelagi) were investigated by bacterial growth curves and inhibition zone. Compared to Ag NPs, the SiO 2/PD/Ag NCs exhibited superior long-term antibacterial activity, attributed to its controlled release of Ag + ions. 相似文献

Compositionally graded Pb(Zr ,Ti)O 3 thin films were prepared on the Pt(1 1 1)/Ti/SiO 2/Si, LNO/Si(1 0 0) and LNO/Pt(1 1 1)/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates by a modified sol–gel method and rapid heat-treatment. The composition depth profile of a typical up-graded film was determined using a combination of auger electron spectroscopy and Ar-ion etching. The crystallographic orientation and the microstructure of the resulting graded PZT thin films on the different substrates were characterized by XRD. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the graded PZT films were discussed. The graded PZT films on LNO/Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si and LNO/Si(1 0 0) substrates have larger dielectric constant and remnant polarizations compared to that grown on Pt/Ti/SiO 2/Si substrates. 相似文献

Advanced sol–gel methods using a secondary solvent addition into (Pb, La)(Zr, Ti)O 3 (PLZT) sol–gel solution and a methanol pre-treatment of sapphire substrates are demonstrated. For the secondary solvent addition, the additive affected the crystallinity and electro-optic (EO) property of PLZT films and only methanol addition can improve them. In addition, the methanol pre-treatment is also appeared to be effective to improve film characteristics. Through these optimizations, epitaxially grown PLZT thin films on r-cut sapphire are obtained and a high Pockels coefficient which is comparable to those of bulk PLZTs is achieved. It is believed that these PLZT thin films are applicable for integrated EO devices and open the door for the future data communication systems. 相似文献

In this work, dopants and buffer layers were employed to simultaneously lower the dielectric loss and enhance the dielectric tunability of Ba(Zr 0.3Ti 0.7)O 3 (BZT) thin films. The BZT, 1 mol% La doping BZT (BZTL) with and without La 0.5Sr 0.5CoO 3 (LSCO) buffer layers were prepared by sol–gel technique. The dielectric properties of the thin films were investigated as a function of frequency and current bias field. As a result, the BZTL thin film with LSCO buffer layer showed lower dielectric loss and higher tunability simultaneously, which can be a promising candidate for tunable microwave device applications. 相似文献

The conversion of C3 organic compounds (propane, propene, 1- and 2-propanol, allyl alcohol, propanal, acrolein, acetone and 1- and 2-chloropropane) in the presence of excess oxygen has been investigated over two V–W–TiO 2 commercial SCR catalysts differing in the V content and over Mn–TiO 2 alternative SCR catalysts. V–W–Ti catalysts show poor activity in the oxidation of hydrocarbons and oxygenates and give significant amounts of partial oxidation products. Moreover they give rise to CO in excess of CO 2. The sample higher in V is more active. Mn–TiO 2 is definitely more active in oxidation of hydrocarbons and oxygenates, and produces, at total conversion, CO 2 as the only detectable product. V–W–Ti catalysts are very active in dehydrochlorination of the two 2-chloropropane isomers and retain the same oxidation activity also in the presence of HCl. On the contrary, Mn-based catalysts in the presence of chlorocarbons convert into dehydrochlorination catalysts but lose their catalytic activity in oxidation. V–W–Ti catalysts can be used in Cl-containing atmospheres while Mn–TiO2 can be proposed for DeNOx and VOC abatement in Cl-free atmospheres such as for diesel engine exhaust gas purification. 相似文献

ZrO 2–TiO 2 mixed oxide (30–70 mol/mol) was prepared by low-temperature sol–gel followed by solvo-thermal treatment (1 day) at various temperatures (40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 °C). Selected samples of the corresponding single oxides were also prepared. Materials characterization was carried out by N 2 physisorption, XRD, thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and UV–vis DRS, infra-red and Laser-Raman spectroscopies. Binary solids of enhanced pore volume and pore size diameter were obtained by increasing the post-treatment severity. Anatase TiO 2 micro-segregation was evidenced by Raman spectroscopy for the mixed oxide solvo-treated at the highest temperature. This solid also showed the highest crystallization temperature to ZrTiO 4 (702 °C). Mo impregnated (2.8 atom nm −2) on various mixed oxides was sulfided under H 2S/H 2 (400 °C, 1 h), the catalysts being tested in the dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization (HDS, T = 320 °C, P = 5.59 MPa). By increasing the severity of the solvo-treatment improved supports for MoS 2 phase were obtained. The HDS activity of the catalyst with carrier post-treated at 200 °C was 40% higher (in per total mass basis) than that of sulfided Mo supported on the binary oxide solvo-treated at 80 °C. The ZrO 2–TiO 2-supported catalysts showed higher selectivity to products from the hydrogenation route than their counterparts supported on either single oxide. 相似文献

The effect of TiO 2 on the grain growth of the ZnO–Bi 2O 3–CoO–MnO ceramic system prepared by chemical coprecipitation, was studied between 1150 and 1300 °C in air. Bi 2O 3 melts during firing, and then TiO 2 dissolves into Bi 2O 3-rich liquid. TiO 2 initially reacts with Bi 2O 3 to form Bi 4Ti 3O 12. Above ≈1050 °C, Bi 4Ti 3O 12 reacts with ZnO to form Zn 2TiO 4 spinel phase. The kinetic study of grain growth carried out using the expression Gn– Gon= Ko· t·exp(− Q/ RT) gave grain exponent ( n) value as 6 and the apparent activation energy ( Q) as 226.46 kJ/mol. 1.00 mol% TiO 2 addition increased the grain growth exponent value from 6 to 7 and apparent activation energy with 1.00 mol% TiO 2 addition was found to be 197.10 kJ/mol. The ZnO grain size gradually increases with increasing TiO 2 content. Addition of TiO 2 may increase the reactivity of the Bi 2O 3-rich liquid towards the ZnO grain, thus affecting the ZnO grain growth. 相似文献
