Interfacial charge and strain effects on lanthanum doped barium stannate thin film under ferroelectric gating

AbstractThe elastic properties of modulated structure materials are presented. An enhanced modulus effect has been observed in several composition modulated thin film systems containing short wavelength modulations.8-10nm. The foils were produced by vapor deposition using two or three source evaporator. As compared with homogeneous foils of the same average composition, the modulated foils exhibited an appreciable increase (up to 300%) in modulus. The dependence of various moduli on the modulation parameters (wavelength, composition and amplitude) are described. The plastic behavior, breaking and microhardness of these foils are also presented as a function of the modulation parameters. Current theories based on electronic and strain effects on the elastic constants of metals are also presented to explain the origin of the supermodulus effect.

Interfacial Charge

In this research, design of advanced material for sunlight conversion requires focused research to obtain efficient photocatalytic system. Nanostructured ZnO was synthesized using spin coating technique. The structural, morphological and optical properties of annealed nanostructured ZnO thin film at 390 Co for 3 hours were characterized by x-ray diffraction, atomic force microscope AFM and UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Nanostructured ZnO was applied for removal Methylene Blue (MB) dye from water using sunlight induced photocatalytic process. Overall degradation of MB/ZnO was achieved after 120 minutes of sunlight irradiation while it needs more time for MB alone. The reaction rate constant fit pseudo first order for MB/ZnO degradation was 0.031 min−1 compared to 0.018 min-1 using blank sample. Annealed nanostructured ZnO thin film was considered as an excellent candidate to enhance photocatalytic system to convert sunlight to chemical energy based on interfacial charges transfer.
