Nickel oxide (NiOx) due to its p-type nature has considerable potential as a photocathodic
material in energy conversion devices such as dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). However,NiOx has not been extensively used for ...
Crystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) coatings have been widely used in photo-electrochemical solar cell applications. In this study, TiO2 and carbon-doped TiO2 coatings were deposited onto unheated titanium and silicon wafer ...
The photoactivity of both un-doped and carbon-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) coatings has been widely reported. In this paper, the use of a microwave plasma as a novel oxidation treatment for the fabrication of these coatings ...
In this study the use of microwave plasma sintering of nickel oxide (NiOx) particles for use as p-type photoelectrode coatings in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is investigated. NiOx was chosen as the photocathode for ...
An atmospheric pressure plasma system has been used to treat amorphous polyethylene terephthalate (APET) to enhance its heatseal properties to a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film. The plasma treated APET sheet material ...
Low-order moment around the mean (mean, standard deviation and skewness) analysis of the time evolving specific acoustic intensity of an air atmospheric pressure plasma jet is performed as a function of nozzle-to-surface ...
This study investigates protein adhesion on nm thick helium atmospheric plasma deposited quaternary ammonium salt (QAS) coatings. The adhesion of the proteins BSA, IgG and Fg was evaluated on coated and uncoated silicon ...
A study was undertaken to investigate the potential of a novel surface modification process to
enhance Ti6Al4V wear resistance. The process consists of co-incident particle streams of
abrasive and dopant materials which ...
This paper reports on the deposition of siloxane coatings exhibiting ‘aligned’ and ‘non-aligned’ fibrous structures using an atmospheric plasma jet system called PlasmaStreamTM. The coatings were deposited from both liquid ...
The development of non-invasive process diagnostic techniques for the control of
atmospheric plasmas is a critical issue for the wider adoption of this technology. This paper evaluates
the use of a frequency-domain ...
