The molar ratio of zinc acetate dehydrate to MEA is 1.0. X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy are employed to investigate the effect of solution concentration on the structural and optical properties of the ZnO thin films. The obtained results of all thin films are discussed in detail and are compared with other experimental data.展开更多

Fresh and two days aged solutions were used to investigate the growth behavior and to evaluate the nanostructure of ZnO. The effect of preparation conditions on the deposition of ZnO nanostructure was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The results indicated that the solution aging condition and annealing temperature have a strong influence on the morphology and structural properties of the ZnO nanostructure. The solution aged after two days shows the different morphologies compared with the freshly prepared solution.展开更多

To be specific, a dual-functional coating with both superhydrophobic and luminescent properties was prepared on cotton fabric by using a dip-coating solution comprising (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTMS) modified SrA1204:Eu2+,Dy3+particles, SU8, and fluorinated alkyl silane (FAS). The micro/nano-scale roughness generated by SrA1204:Eu2+,Dy3+ particles, together with low-sur- face-energy FAS, rendered the cotton fabric superhydrophobic with a water contact angle of about 160° and a sliding angle as small as 2°. The coated fabric could withstand at least 100 cycles of standard laundry. The emission spectra of the coated fabric showed two emission peaks at 440 and 520 nm, which belonged to the blue and yellow-green color areas, respectively. The afterglow duration of the coated fabric was mainly influenced by the different depths of the trap levels in the SrA1204:Eu2+,Dy3+.展开更多
