Novel Spark Method for Deposition of Metal Oxide Thin Films: Deposition of Hexagonal Tungsten Oxide
摘要： Hexagonal tungsten trioxide (WO3) layers are grown on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates using a novel spark deposition system. The effects of deposition time, substrate temperature, and oxygen (O2) flow rate through the chamber on the structural and morphological characteristics as well as the electrochemical response of the layers are examined. It is found that a deposition temperature of 400 °C and O2 flow rate at 60 mL min?1 through the chamber can result in hexagonal WO3 with improved crystallinity and quite effective electrochemical/electrochromic response.

Fabrication of an electrochromic device by using WO3 thin films synthesized using facile single-step hydrothermal process
摘要： The development of an uncomplicated process for the preparation of tungsten oxide (WO3) nanorods (NRs) using hydrothermal method is still underway. Thus, this study demonstrated the growth of WO3 NRs on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates in aqueous solution using single synthesis step hydrothermally. The surface area and size of the NRs which should be tunable for electrochromic (EC) applications were controlled by adjusting the concentration of surfactants such as propylene glycol (PG). The synthesized NRs were illustrated using crystal structure study, surface morphology, chemical analysis, and the measure of the luminance of a color. The results manifested that increasing the PG content increased the size of the crystallite with a nanoparticle-like morphology on the ITO substrate, indicating the direct deposition of a stable WO3 thin film. In addition, the synthesized WO3 NRs exhibited fast switching speed and high contrast ratio implying superior EC properties for smart window application. Furthermore, an EC device with the dimensions of 2×4 cm2 was assembled using the synthesized WO3 NRs with the ITO/WO3/Lithium perchlorate-propylene carbonate-poly(methyl methacrylate)-acetonitrile/nickel oxide/ITO configuration. The device had an average optical modulation in the visible region, a fast EC response time (1.2 s for coloration and 1.5 s for decoloration), excellent coloration efficiency (243 cm2 C-1) and a superior EC stability (over 20000 color/decolor cycles).

Multi-layered WO3 nano-platelets for efficient photoelectrochemical water splitting: the role of the annealing ramp
摘要： Multi-layered WO3 nano-square platelets films were successfully grown on transparent TCO substrates by spray-coating of WO3 nanoparticles aqueous suspension prepared by the sol-gel method. This work assesses the influence of two annealing schemes in the photo-response of WO3 photoelectrodes with different film thicknesses. The photoelectrochemical characterization reveals that the slow-heating ramp produces a photoelectrode with an improved photocurrent density of 1.6 mA·cm-2 at 1.23 V vs RHE. Comparing photoelectrodes with the same film thickness, the slow-heating ramp yield higher photocurrent densities; 80 % more than the conventional fast-heating ramp. The effect of the annealing ramp on the morphology and crystalline-phase structure of WO3 photoelectrodes is correlated with the photocurrent density. The slow-heating ramp annealing unveils film morphology with both, higher porosity degree and higher nano-square platelets dimensions. DRX structural analyses disclose that the films grow in monoclinic crystalline phase with a textural preferential direction [002], often related to improved photocurrent performances. The crystallite sizes and lattice microstrain are estimated using a simple X-ray diffraction broadening method, the Williamson-Hall analysis. A quantified correlation between the WO3 lattice defects, intergrains strain and performance is performed. The proposed deposition method paves the way for producing efficient and scalable photoelectrodes of WO3 for photoelectrochemical water splitting by using low-cost and simple manufacturing processes.

[IEEE 2018 19th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology (ICEPT) - Shanghai, China (2018.8.8-2018.8.11)] 2018 19th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology (ICEPT) - The characters of WO<inf>3</inf> electrochromic film prepared by sol-gel method
摘要： Electrochromic device is made up of transparent conduction layer, electrochromic layer, electrolyte layer and counter electrode layer. In this paper, we used a sol-gel method, which could decrease the cost, to prepare the WO3 electrochromic film. We firstly spin-coated the precursor on the ITO glass and then annealed the WO3 film at different temperature. Finally, we covered the electrolyte layer on the WO3 film and assembled it into electrochromic device. The film was investigated by Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV spectrophotometer. We found the precursor’s color will change from yellow to white after it was stirred over 4h. After comparison, the film annealed at 573K could get the highest contrast ratio.

Photodecomposition Profile of Curcumin in the Existence of Tungsten Trioxide Particles
摘要： The purpose of this study was to investigate the stability of curcumin solution in the existence of tungsten trioxide (WO3) particles under light illumination. In the experimental method, curcumin extracted from Indonesian turmeric was added with WO3 microparticles and put into the photoreactor system. The photostability performance of curcumin was conducted for 22 hours using 100 W of Neon Lamp. The results showed that the curcumin solution was relatively stable. When curcumin without existence of WO3 was irradiated, no change in the curcumin concentration was found. However, when curcumin solution was mixed with WO3 particles, decreases in the concentration of curcumin was found. The concentration of curcumin with WO3 after light irradiation was about 73.58%. Based on the results, we concluded that the curcumin is relatively stable against light. However, its light-irradiation stability decreases with additional inorganic material.

Structural, Morphological, and Optical Properties of Iron Doped WO3 Thin Film Prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition
摘要： The iron doped tungsten-oxide (Fe and WO3) thin ?lm with di?erent morphology and crystalline structures were obtained for di?erent substrate temperatures at the oxygen pressure of 14.66 Pa. The Fe-doped WO3 ?lms were deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The in?uence of the substrate temperature on the surface and on the crystalline phases of the ?lms was studied. The XRD (X-ray di?raction) analysis indicates the changing in the crystalline phases from γ-monoclinic to a mixture of γ-monoclinic and hexagonal phases dependent on the temperature of annealing and as-grown ?lms. Related to the as-grown and annealing ?lms conditions, the SEM (scanning electron microscopy) shows a change in the image surface from nanoneedles, to nanoporous, and further to long nanowires and broad nanobands. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) shows the elemental composition of the Fe-doped WO3 ?lm as-grown and after annealing treatment. Raman spectroscopy presented the main vibration mode of the Fe-doped WO3 thin ?lm. The optical energy bandgap of the ?lms is decreasing as the substrate temperature increases.

A new electrochemically prepared composite counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells
摘要： In this paper, we propose new counter electrodes for applications in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Polyaniline (PANi), tungsten trioxide (WO3), and their composite are deposited on indium thin oxide substrates using cyclic voltammetry technique and employed as counter electrodes that reached comparable and superior performances than Pt counter electrodes. These excellent results are achieved due to the high conductivity and electrocatalytic behavior of the prepared materials. Morphological, electrocatalytic, bonding structure, charge transfer properties, and photovoltaic characteristics are respectively investigated by field emission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry, Tafel analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and current-voltage analysis. Our best DSSC that is fabricated from the WO3/PANi nanocomposite counter electrode demonstrated an efficiency of 6.78%, which is a 12.4% improvement in comparison with the Pt-based DSSC.

Protein-functionalized WO3 nanorods–based impedimetric platform for sensitive and label-free detection of a cardiac biomarker
摘要： We report the development of a sensitive and a label-free electrochemical immunosensing platform for the detection of cardiac biomarker troponin I (cTnI) using tungsten trioxide nanorods (WO3 NRs). The low-temperature hydrothermal technique was employed for the controlled synthesis of WO3 NRs. Thin films of 3-aminopropyltriethoxy saline (APTES)-functionalized WO3 NRs were deposited on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass substrate (0.5 cm × 1 cm) using electrophoretic deposition technique. The covalent immobilization of cTnI antibody onto functionalized WO3 NRs electrode was accomplished using EDC-NHS [1-(3-(dimethylamino)-propyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide] chemistry. The structural and morphological characterizations of WO3 NRs and functionalized WO3 NRs were studied using X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques. The impedimetric response study of the proposed immunosensor demonstrates high sensitivity [6.81 KΩ·mL/(ng·cm2)] in a linear detection range of 0.01–10 ng/mL. The excellent selectivity, good reproducibility, and long-term stability of the proposed immunosensing platform indicate WO3 NRs as a suitable platform for the development of a point-of-care biosensing device for cardiac detection.

Near infrared radiation shielding using CsxWO3 Nanoparticles for infrared mini Light-Emitting Diodes
摘要： Recently, near infrared LEDs have been used in small electronic devices due to the trend of manufacturing compact systems. The intensity of near infrared (NIR) optical device needs to be moderated if the chip emits too much power. In tradition, color pigments are used as additives in the encapsulant of LEDs to reduce the intensity of over irradiated NIR, a strategy which results in unaesthetic appearance. Cesium doped tungsten trioxide (CsxWO3) nanoparticles (NPs) have good near infrared absorption ability. Applying very few amount of CsxWO3 NPs into the encapsulation materials of NIR optical device can decrease NIR intensity while still maintain high visible light transmittance without losing aesthetic touch of those devices such as LED transmitters. The addition of only 0.0021 wt% CsxWO3/PMA dispersion in epoxy encapsulant can drop 15.5% NIR (860 nm) intensity but barely reduce visible light (only 3.2% at 450 nm). The excellent performance of CsxWO3 NPs; i.e., good NIR absorption and visible light transmission properties, can be suitable for maintaining the moderate luminescence intensity of small optoelectronic devices like NIR mini- or micro- light-emitting diodes.

Hexagonal boron nitride quantum dots as a superior hole extractor for efficient charge separation in WO <sub/>3</sub> based photoelectrochemical water oxidation
摘要： Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is one of the best desirable technique to harvest clean chemical energy from abundant solar energy. However, the anodic half reaction, i.e. water oxidation is complicated due to the involvement of multiple electrons in this process. Herein, stable WO3 nanoblocks with monoclinic phase have been modified by incorporation of hexagonal boron nitride quantum dots (h-BNQDs) to improve the photogenerated electron-hole separation and additionally to hinder the charge recombination process. The photocurrent density (J) value for modified WO3 photoanode by incorporation of BNQDs has been found to be 1.63 mA/cm2 at the potential of 1.23VRHE which is approximately 2.4 fold higher than the bare WO3 photoanode. The enhancement in photocurrent density is mainly due to the hole extraction property of BNQDs on the surface of the WO3 nanoblocks. A two-fold increment in photogenerated charge carrier density (ND) value has been achieved due to better charge separation of electron-hole pairs in the modified system confirmed by the Mott-Schottky (MS) plot. Present work demonstrates a unique, low-cost strategy for enhancement of PEC water oxidation by modification of photoanode with hole extracting agents.
