Abstract

Dynamic deposition of ZnO nanostructures with varying morphologies (nanorods, nanocones, nanopencils, nanosheets, etc.), diameters, lengths and aerial densities on ITO-PET substrates has been achieved using a continuous flow microreactor in which we maintained a homeostatic zinc concentration and varied the other reactants' concentrations.

Zinc oxide is an inorganic compound with the formula ZnO. It is a white powder that is insoluble in water. ZnO is used as an additive in numerous materials and products including cosmetics, food supplements, rubbers, plastics, ceramics, glass, cement, lubricants, paints, sunscreens, ointments, adhesives, sealants, pigments, foods, batteries, ferrites, fire retardants, semi conductors, and first-aid tapes. Although it occurs naturally as the mineral zincite, most zinc oxide is produced synthetically.

Plant morphology

Phytomorphology is the study of the physical form and external structure of plants. This is usually considered distinct from plant anatomy, which is the study of the internal structure of plants, especially at the microscopic level. Plant morphology is useful in the visual identification of plants. Recent studies in molecular biology started to investigate the molecular processes involved in determining the conservation and diversification of plant morphologies.

An organic light-emitting diode (OLED), also known as organic electroluminescent (organic EL) diode, is a light-emitting diode (LED) in which the emissive electroluminescent layer is a film of organic compound that emits light in response to an electric current. This organic layer is situated between two electrodes; typically, at least one of these electrodes is transparent. OLEDs are used to create digital displays in devices such as television screens, computer monitors, and portable systems such as smartphones and handheld game consoles.

An Insight into Atmospheric Plasma Jet Modified ZnO Quantum Dots Thin Film for Flexible Perovskite Solar Cell: Optoelectronic Transient and Charge Trapping Studies

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin

In this work, a new embodiment of flexible perovskite solar cell is based on graphene (Gr) as the barrier layer and the atmospheric plasma jet (APjet)-treated ZnO quantum dots (QDs) as the mesoscopic metal oxide layer on ITO-PET substrates. The ITO-PET fle ...

An Indium-Free Anode for Large-Area Flexible OLEDs: Defect-Free Transparent Conductive Zinc Tin Oxide

Christophe Ballif, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Ali Dabirian, Monica Morales Masis, Fabien Paul Jacques Dauzou

Flexible large-area organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) require highly conductive and transparent anodes for efficient and uniform light emission. Tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) is the standard anode in industry. However, due to the scarcity of indium, alt ...
