Abstract

Chemical Deposition Of ZnO Nano Film At different Zinc Source At Electrolyte

Fatih Tezcan, Gülfeza KARDAŞ

Synthesized of ZnO nano materials has been ultimately gone up own specific properties including high excition band energy (60 meV) and proper band gap (3.3 eV). For these properties ZnO nano films have been used as photoanode  at photoelectrochemical cell  which water splitting via solar light irritation [1, 2]. ZnO nano materials are synthesized with use different techniques including atomic/molecular layer deposition[3], hydrothermal method[4], electrochemical deposition method[5] and chemical method[6].   Chemical deposition technique is generally chosen to obtain different morphology ZnO nano structure because of cheaper and not take long time than other techniques. Our study in that scene, ZnO nano films have been synthesized used chemical deposition method more different electrolyte condition than  literature.  Indium doped tin oxide(ITO) was chosen substrate to deposition ZnO film on its surface. 0.001 M zinc citrate dihyrate– 0.001 M hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) ethanoic solution  has been used deposition bath at 70 °C.  Using that  technique was obtained surface morphology of ZnO nano films were characterized Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM). Photoluminescence(PL) property of the electrodes were investigated with Fluorescence Spectrometer LS 55. PEC measurements were examined in a convenient three-electrodes cell, an electrochemical analyser Gamry (interface 1000) and a 300W Xe lamp solar simulator (100 mWcm-2).
