An amorphous quaternary Ba-Sr-Co-Fe (a-BSCF) oxide film was fabricated by a simple and scalable photochemical thin-film deposition method. a-BSCF demonstrates superior electrocatalytic activity towards the oxygen evolution reaction in 0.1 M KOH solution.

We describe a new thin film deposition method for the growth of crystalline SbSI micro-needles via the conversion of Sb2S3 using SbI3 vapour, in a facile process that takes less than 15 minutes.

The use of Prussian blue analogues (PBA) materials in electrochemical energy storage and harvesting has gained much interest, necessitating the further clarification of their electrochemical characteristics. However, there is no well-defined technique for manufacturing PBA-based microelectrochemical devices because the PBA film deposition method has not been well studied. In this study, we developed the following deposition method for growing copper hexacyanoferrate (CuHCFe) thin film: copper thin film is immersed into a potassium hexacyanoferrate solution, following which the redox reaction induces the spontaneous deposition of CuHCFe thin film on the copper thin film. The film grown via this method showed compatibility with conventional photolithography processes, and the micropattern of the CuHCFe thin film was successfully defined by a lift-off process. A microelectrochemical device based on the CuHCFe thin film was fabricated via micropatterning, and the sodium ion diffusivity in CuHCFe was measured. The presented thin film deposition method can deposit PBAs on any surface, including insulating substrates, and it can extend the utilization of PBA thin films to various applications.

The simultaneous, real time observation of oxygen evolution in the gas phase and in solution enables advanced mechanistic studies which are critical for technologies including water electrolysis, fuel cells, oxidation catalysis and metal–air batteries.
