Titanate nanosheet thick films were prepared on indium-tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass substrates by electrophoretic deposition. Three types of sols with different preparation procedures and pH values were prepared. In the case of titanate nanosheet films prepared from a sol with pH=7.0, surface of the films was flat and nanosheets which deposited on substrates were uniformly dense. Titanate nanosheet thick film deposited from the sol using dimethyl ethanol amine for the exfoliation showed a high photocatalytic activity due to the high crystallinity

ZnS thin films were deposited on indium–tin-oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates by a chemical bath deposition method. Then the ZnS/ITO slides were immersed in the solution containing 6 mM phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4), sodium polyacrylate (0.01% w/w), and 0.24 mM AgNO3 at 37°C for 3 h to growth Ag2S films on the surface of ZnS/ITO slides. The absorption band of Ag2S/ZnS/ITO slide displays a considerably blue-shifted. The X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated the presence of acanthite Ag2S on the surface of ZnS/ITO slides, which is consistent with the cyclic voltammetic data.

The Ag-Ag2S-PbS thin films were co-electrodeposited on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates from aqueous solutions containing 0.01 M AgNO3, 0.01 M Pb (NO3)2, 0.1 M Na2S2O3, 0.02 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt, and 0.5 M Na2SO4. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) were used to investigate the Ag-Ag2S-PbS thin films. The X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated the presence of cubic structure of metallic silver, acanthite Ag2S, and cubic PbS, which is consistent with the CV analysis. The effect of different Ag+/Pb2+ratios on the morphology and composition of the Ag-Ag2S-PbS thin films were also studied.

Diazonium chemistry concomitant within situelectrochemical reduction was used to graft an aryl aldehyde to indium-tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates for subsequent azomethine formation, hydrolysis, and component exchange with different arylamines.
