In this work, the vertically aligned, high conductive Al-doped ZnO nanorod thin film was prepared by multi-layers grown method in solution process .This method of connected nanorod structure is unique of its kind compared with existing hydrothermal process for preparing nanorod. The diameter of AZO nanorod is around 14~16nm with [002] preferred orientation. The Hall measurement indicates the AZO nanorod exhibits high layer conductivity of 280 S/cm. The XPS characterization indicates that the AZO nanorod annealed in forming gas contain high percentage of non-binding oxygens that is suitable for sensor application. The sensing performances of the synthesized nanorod thin film towards the detection of oxidizing agents were analyzed by the current (I)–voltage (V) characteristics in room temperature. With high surface area, the AZO shows sensitivity of 72%, 1660%, and 4.34 x106 % for H2O2, ethanolamine and acetic acid, respectively. 1.02 μM (S/N=3) is the detection limit with broad range of 0.015mM to 29mM is demonstrated for sensing H2O2.

This article describes the preparation of GeTe-based alloy films using a solution-based technique. The dissolution behavior of GeTe was initially examined by comparing the weight loss of GeTe powder in different solvents, and it was found that, unlike in the cases of n-butylamine and NH4OH, KOH fully dissolved GeTe to form an agglomerate-free solution. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the reaction between GeTe and KOH resulted in the formation of rhombohedral GeTe, cubic GeTe4, and hexagonal Te structures after drying. GeTe-based alloy films were then prepared by the spin coating of the GeTe-containing solutions on a silicon substrate. The surface morphology and reflectance properties of the prepared films were found to be highly dependent on the spin speed, with optimization of the spin coating parameter resulting in the deposition of a continuous and smooth film.

This paper reports the rapid synthesis, characterization, and photovoltaic and sensing applications of TiO2 nanoflowers prepared by a facile low-temperature solution process. The morphological characterizations clearly reveal the high-density growth of a three-dimensional flower-shaped structure composed of small petal-like rods. The detailed properties confirmed that the synthesized nanoflowers exhibited high crystallinity with anatase phase and possessed an energy bandgap of 3.2 eV. The synthesized TiO2 nanoflowers were utilized as photo-anode and electron-mediating materials to fabricate dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) and liquid nitroaniline sensor applications. The fabricated DSSC demonstrated a moderate conversion efficiency of ~3.64% with a maximum incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE) of ~41% at 540 nm. The fabricated liquid nitroaniline sensor demonstrated a good sensitivity of ~268.9 μA mM−1 cm−2 with a low detection limit of 1.05 mM in a short response time of 10 s.
