Synthesis, characterization and optical properties of selective Co3O4 films 1-D interlinked nanowires prepared by spray pyrolysis technique

Investigation of the post-annealing electromagnetic response of Cu–Co oxide coatings via optical measurement and computational modelling

“…Their optical properties indicate the red shi of absorption peaks, thereby showing a quantum-conned effect and semiconducting nature. 23 In Amun's study, 24 the combined CuCoO thin lms showed a selectivity of just over 14. There have been numerous investigations available in studies on metal oxide thin lms for the improvement and optimization of physiochemical, optical, thermal, electrochemical, photo-chemical, magnetic, dielectric and electromagnetic properties focusing on their practical applications such as clean energy devices, solar cells, photovoltaics, thermal collectors, selective solar surfaces and smart windows.…”

Synthesis of TiO2 decorated Co3O4 acicular nanowire arrays and their application as an ethanol sensor

“…[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] To optimize the gas performance of Co 3 O 4 , a large amount of effort has been made to control the morphology and size of Co 3 O 4 in the previous studies. 8,13,15,16 The synthesis of various nanostructures of Co 3 O 4 such as nanoparticles, 17 nanorods, 6,7 nanobers, 10,18,19 nanosheets 20 and hollow nanospheres 9 has been carried out by using varieties of techniques including electrospinning, 18 hydrothermal methods, 12 solid state thermal decomposition, etc. 17,20 Among these Co 3 O 4 based nanomaterials, a one-dimensional nanowire array is considered to be a promising architecture with a high chemical response.…”

OPTICAL VIBRATIONAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF S-Co3O4 NANOSTRUCTURED THIN FILM

“…P-type transition metal oxide materials with Co3O4 nanostructure (direct band gaps at 1.48 and 2.19 eV) [11] have wide range of usage fields such as solid-state sensors, absorbers of solar energy [12], solar cells and photodetectors [13]. Cobalt oxide and cobalt sulfide materials are synthesized by various methods such as chemical bath deposition [14][15][16], chemical vapour deposition [17][18], electrochemical deposition [19,20] and spray pyrolysis technique [10,21]. In recent years, performance values of metal oxides have been tried to be increased by introducing various dopants [22].…”
