Sol-Gel Technology Adaptation of Nanostructured Zinc Oxide for Flexible Electronics

Resumo

The possibility of replacing classical sol-gel operation methods of high-temperature annealing by photo-annealing using ultraviolet-range radiation has been analyzed. A technique for synthesizing hierarchically organized zinc oxide films using sol-gel technology based on the parallel combination of low-temperature treatment and UV photo-annealing is proposed. Spectroscopic studies of the qualitative composition of the film-forming sol and nanomaterials based on it, obtained on various types of substrates, have been carried out before and after initiation of photochemical reactions.
