Cosputtered SnO2–ZnO composite nanofilms with improved dual function

Abstract: SnO 2 -ZnO composite thin films were grown by radio-frequency and directcurrent cosputtering of ceramic ZnO and metallic Sn targets, respectively. During the cosputtering film growth, the SnO 2 matrix sputtering power was fixed at 20 W, while the additive ZnO sputtering power was varied in the range of 40-80 W. Structural and compositional analysis results showed that the ZnO sputtering power increased the relative ZnO phase content in the composite film and its surface grain size. Compared to the single-const… Show more

“…In addition, among the various photocatalysts, CTA100 has the best photodegradation ability towards MO solution under the given test conditions. Comparatively, CTA100 can degrade 52% MO solution in this study after 30 min irradiation, and this degradation level is superior to that of the SnO 2 -ZnO nanofilm prepared with a ZnO sputtering power of 40 W (degradation level: 43%) 40 and the ZnS-Ag 2 S heterostructure prepared with an Ag sputtering duration of 80 s (degradation level: 40%) 41 under similar test conditions. The results show that the photocatalytic ability of the as-synthesized Ag/Cu 2 O/ TiO 2 films herein is comparable with that of other composite material systems.…”

“…Notably, a higher photocurrent density means that the photogenerated charges of the sample have better separation efficiency. 40,41 All the CT series composite films exhibit better photoresponse performance than the pristine TiO 2 film. The modification of Cu 2 O as a visible light catalyst strengthens the lightcollecting ability of the TiO 2 template film; furthermore, the p-n heterostructure in the composite system improves the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers.…”
