The principal characteristics of the cathode deposition of zinc oxide from slightly acidified aqueous zinc nitrate solution at 65 °C were studied via potentiodynamic electrolysis, potentiostatic electrolysis, and X-ray diffraction patterns. The results indicate the reliability of a low-temperature electrolytic path of synthesis, and avenues of further exploration. Keywords: zinc oxide, cathode deposition, XRD patterns, FBM theory.

Hybrid thin films of crystalline zinc oxide and the zinc complex of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (ZnTPPS) have been prepared by cathodic electrodeposition from different aqueous zinc salt solutions. Films from a solution containing zinc nitrate and the porphyrin derivate show a rough surface and porosity, whereas films prepared from an oxygen-saturated zinc chloride solution were very smooth. The presence of the porphyrin derivative in the deposition solution has a clear influence on the morphology of the hybrid films compared with pure zinc oxide films. In aqueous zinc nitrate solution the addition of the porphyrin derivative hinders the growth of zinc oxide. In contrast, the addition of the dye to the oxygen-saturated zinc chloride solution leads to an increase of the growth rate of ZnO /porphyrin hybrid films. An increased spectral absorbance was reached when two dyes (zinc complex of tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine and porphyrin) were added to the zinc nitrate solution since the electrodeposited hybrid thin films contained both dyes. UV-vis spectra revealed the presence of both macrocyclic metal complexes in the ZnO films.

This study was aimed to test the ability of zinc oxide (ZnO) film fabricated by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) to detect liquid petroleum gas consisting of a mixture of butane/propane gas. The film was fabricated by alternate dipping of pre-cleaned glass substrates in a sodium zincate bath and in a 95°C hot water bath using an automated dipping machine to control the sequence and dipping time. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed a uniform film consisting of wurtzite ZnO nanorods for the sample grown using 0.1M concentration of sodium zincate and 200 dippings. Current-voltage characterization of the samples showed an average resistivity of 1.343 Ω-m. EDS analysis of the film confirmed the existence of zinc oxide with 65.9% zinc and 34.1% oxygen. The ZnO film exhibited an ability to detect the gas with an average gas response of 0.44, average response time of 14 seconds and average recovery time of 25 seconds using a gas concentration in air of 1.5 % by volume. Response time is the time for the sensor to reach the peak voltage output from the start of gas exposure while recovery time is the time for the voltage output to return to the initial value without gas when the gas is removed from the chamber. The zinc oxide film also showed a voltage output of 100, 109.31, 118.92, 123.61, 133.5, and 149.52 mV when exposed to percent volume gas concentrations of 0, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, and 1.5, respectively with a correlation coefficient of 0.97. The sensor sensitivity is 32 Δ(mV)/Δ(%conc).
