AbstractTwo kinds of nanocrystalline Tin doped indium oxide (or indium tin oxide: denoted ITO hereafter) powders with different crystal structures – rhombohedral and cubic – were prepared using a coprecipitation method through the control of pH of a mixing solution and aging time after coprecipitation. The two powders have the same particle size of 15 nm in diameter but different morphologies (spherical for rhomboheral and rectangular for cubic). The gaseous ethanol sensing characteristics of the sensors prepared by the two ITO powders were quite different. The sensitivity of rhombohedral ITO sensor was high compared to that of the cubic ITO sensor across all temperatures. The reason for this is explained through the viewpoint of the binding energy of XPS and the surface structure relating to the crystal structure.

ABSTRACTThe surface electronic properties of the nitric oxide (NO) treated indium tin oxide (ITO) are examined in-situ by a four-point probe and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The XPS N1s peak emerged at a high binding energy of 404 eV indicating that NO is reactive with ITO. NO adsorption induces an increase of film sheet resistance, arising from an oxygen rich layer near the ITO surface region, with approximately 2.5 nm thick. This implies that the interaction of NO with ITO is occurred around surface region. Valence band maximum measured for NO-absorbed ITO was shifted to the low binding energy side. This is related to the upward surface band bending.

ABSTRACTIndium tin oxide (ITO) nanowires (NWs) were grown on glass substrates by using ITO sputtering sources (targets) with SnO2 contents in the range of approximately 5.0 to 30.0 wt%. NW growth became apparent at temperatures above 125 °C, and the In, Sn and O contents of the resulting ITO NWs were similar to those of the ITO source. NWs grown from ITO sources containing 5.0 to 12.0 wt% SnO2 had circular or elliptical cross-sections, while those obtained from sources with 12.0 to 30.0 wt% SnO2 exhibited square cross-sections. ITO NWs approximately 2 μm in length were obtained as single crystals with a cubic crystal structure. The resistivity of an ITO NW was measured using four nanoprobes in conjunction with a field emission scanning electron microscope and was found to range from 0.13 to 0.6 μΩ-m, values that were approximately one order of magnitude lower than those of transparent ITO films.
