AbstractIn the study Li4/3Ti5/3O4 thin films were deposited on Pt substrates by sol-gel method using a spin coator. The coated films are dried at 310-360 °C, and then annealed at 500-800 °C for 30min. The prepared films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscope and scanning electron microscope. The results indicated that the prepared film belonged to a spinel structure and had a uniform morphology. Electrochemical properties of the prepared electrode films were evaluated by using a discharge and charge test. From these results, it can be showed that the thin film electrode annealed at 700 °C exhibited good crystallinity, smooth surface morphology, high capacity, and good rechargeability. Therefore, This film was therefore suitable for use as an anode for thin-film microbatteries.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films based interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) have been synthesized using sol-gel method with hydrochloric acid (HCl) as catalyst. The prepared TiO2 solution has been deposited onto silicon dioxide (SiO2) substrates via spin-coating technique. Film was annealed at 500 °C and aluminium (Al) IDEs have been fabricated. Finally the X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows high intensity of both anatase and rutile peaks exist on 10 nm TiO2 thin film. Average crystallite size of the nanoparticles is seen to be 25 nm. UvVisible spectroscopic (UvVis) technique was used for the transmittance spectra characterization of the sample.

Fe doped up-graded and down-graded PST thin films were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si with sol–gel method. Crystal structure and surface morphology of graded PST thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atom force microscope (AFM). The dielectric measurements were conducted on metal-insulator-metal capacitors at the frequency from 100 Hz to 1M Hz and at room temperature. It was found that the up-graded PST thin film had a larger dielectric constant and lower figure of merit (FOM) than the down-graded film. At 1M Hz, the tunability of up-graded PST thin film was about 65.48%, which was higher than that (about 41.84%) of down-graded PST thin film. The FOM of up-graded and down-graded PST thin films were 16.3 and 9.2, respectively. Our results showed that the dielectric tunable properties of the Fe doped graded PST films depended strongly on the direction of the composition gradient of the graded PST films.

In this study, thin films of CaBi4Ti4O15with preferential crystal orientation were prepared by the chemical solution deposition (CSD) technique on a SiO2/Si substrate. The films consisted of a crystalline phase of bismuth-layer-structured dielectric. The as-deposited CaBi4Ti4O15thin films were crystallized in a conventional furnace annealing (RTA) under the temperature of 700 to 800°C for 1min. Structural and morphological characterization of the CBT thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The impedance analyzer HP4294A and HP4156C semiconductor parameters analyzer were used to measurement capacitance voltage (C-V) characteristics and leakage current density of electric field (J-E) characteristics by metal-ferroelectric-insulator- semiconductor (MFIS) structure. By the experimental result the CBT thin film in electrical field 20V, annealing temperature in 750°C the CBT thin film leaks the electric current is 1.88x10-7A/cm2and the memory window is 1.2V. In addition, we found the strongest (119) peak of as-deposited thin films as the annealed temperature of 750°C

The properties influencing the photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 particles have been suggested to include the surface area, crystallinity, crystallite size and crystal structure. Therefore, manipulation of the microstructure of titania, especially of nanocrystalline powders, is very important in the preparative process. In this study, nanocrystalline TiO 2 powders with controlled particle size and phase composition were synthesized at low temperature (<80°C) by a modified sol–gel method. The effects of gelation temperature were systematically investigated. It was found that this parameter played a critical role in determining the crystallinity of single phase anatase. With increasing gelation temperature, the crystallinity of anatase improved initially and then decreased if the temperature was raised to 80°C. These nanomaterials were characterized comprehensively by powder X-ray diffraction (including Rietveld analysis), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, DSC/TGA thermal analysis and UV–Vis spectrometry.
