We report on the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of metal nanoparticles (NPs) prepared in reverse micelles on semiconductor substrates with the aim to fabricate sensitive Schottky-based hydrogen sensors with fast response and high degree of selectivity. We discuss the mechanism of NP monolayer formation and show which parameters are essential for the transition from three-dimensional to two-dimensional growth.

Electrolyte films of Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9 (SDC) were prepared on NiO-SDC anode substrates by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Dense and crack-free films were fabricated by cofiring the films and substrates. A cell using an SDC electrolyte film with a La0.6Sr0.4CoO3-δ cathode exhibited a power density of 281 mW/cm2 and an electrolyte resistance of 0.064 cm2 at 600°C. The film formation of SDC by EPD was found effective in decreasing the electrolyte resistance.

Abstract Electrophoretic deposition provides material-efficient film formation on large area electrodes. In this study, it has been found that there is a significant difference in the colloidal particle formation process between a thiophene-based copolymer poly(3-octylthiophene- 2,5-diyl-co-3-decyloxythiophene-2,5-diyl) (POT-co-DOT) and C60 in preparation of suspension for electrophoretic deposition by reprecipitation method. This difference is attributed to the difference between low molecular weight materials with specific molecular weight and polymers with molecular weight distribution. The composition of POT-co-DOT:C60 composite film by electrophoretic deposition has also been estimated.

La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-δ–samarium-doped ceria (SDC) carbonate thin films are produced on SDC carbonate substrates by the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. EPD is performed by fixing the voltage and suspension pH while varying the deposition time to obtain a >20 μm-thick layer. The deposition time of 30 min yields more particle deposits than 10, 15, 20, and 25 min. Thin films with an average thickness of 22.9050 μm are obtained from the EPD technique when the voltage is 20 V and the suspension pH is 5.

Alkanethiol films on Au(111) surface have been studied by means of STM-induced luminescence in UHV. The spectra of STM-induced luminescence have been recorded at the same time as STM topography measurements with a spectrograph and a CCD detector. The spectrally resolved STM-induced photon map shows a similar contrast to the topography of alkanethiol film which has many etch pit structures created during the monolayer-film formation. The spectra for the etch pit region are compared with those for the top layer of the film. Those spectra shapes are nearly identical except for the difference of the emission intensity. The results indicate that the etch pit is also covered with an alkanethiol film in a similar way to the top layer of the film. The bias-voltage dependence of emission spectra has also been recorded in the range from 2.0 to 2.5 V. The results show that the spectra do not change their shape due to adsorption in this range of bias voltage within the experimental accuracy. The density of states due to adsorption has been discussed.

Using the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method, we prepared barium titanate nanoparticle (BT-NP) thin films by depositing BT-NP monodispersed in ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGMME) onto an electrically conductive substrate coated with polyacrylic acid (PAA). Deposition efficiency was increased compared to conventional EPD, and the uniformity of the film thickness was also improved as a result of the BT-NPs cohesion effect of the PAA coating on the substrate in addition to the electrophoretic deposition effect of the electric field. When low-molecular-weight PAA was used, the film was reinforced since PAA, which coats the substrate, diffused close to the surface of the BT-NP film during film formation. A crack-free BT-NP film was produced with a film thickness of several micrometers.
