Wide bandgap oxide semiconductors constitute a unique class of materials that combine
properties of electrical conductivity and optical transparency. They are being widely used as …

Inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have garnered increased attention, achieving a
notable power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 26.1%, surpassing that of the nip …

Nanoscience includes the study of objects and systems in which at least one dimension is 1-
100 nm. The objects studied in this range of sizes are larger than atoms and small …

Electrochromic displays are one of the most attractive candidates for paper-like
displays,[1±4] so called electronic paper, which will bring revolutionary advances in the …

Indium− tin oxide (ITO) electrodes have been modified with both fluorinated alkyl and aryl
phosphonic acids [n-hexylphosphonic acid (HPA) and n-octadecylphosphonic acid (ODPA); …

Metals and their alloys have been widely used in all aspects of science, engineering and
medicine. Metals in biomedical devices are used due to their inertness and structural …

Transparent semiconductor thin films of zinc oxide (ZnO) were deposited onto alkali-free
glass substrates by the sol–gel method and spin-coating technique. In this study, authors …

We have used infrared spectroscopy, ellipsometry, and contact angle measurements to
study self-assembled monolayer (SAM) formation on aluminum native oxide from three …

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide a convenient, flexible, and simple system with
which to tailor and functionalize the interfacial properties of metal electrodes. The SAMs on …

We compare the near-surface composition and electroactivity of commercial indium tin oxide
(ITO) thin films, activated by plasma cleaning or etching with strong haloacids, with ITO films …
