However, the lower conductivity is the major drawback for the application of ED-SPANI. Thus, this study describes ... [J. Electrochem. Soc. 157, K15 (2009)] published Wed Nov 18, 2009. Selective-Area Atomic Layer Deposition Using Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) as a Passivation Layer http://link.aip.org/link/?JES/157/K10/1&agg=rss Elina Farm, Marianna Kemell, Eero Santala, Mikko Ritala, and Markku Leskela<br/> Selective-area atomic layer deposition (ALD) was studied using poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) films as growth-preventing mask layers. The PVP films were prepared by spin coating and patterned by UV lithography. The PVP films were tested in several ALD processes: iridium, platinum, ruthenium, AlO, and ... [J. Electrochem.

Phytic Acid-Based Layer-by-Layer Assembly for Fabrication of Mesoporous Gold Film and Its Biosensor Application http://link.aip.org/link/?JES/157/K5/1&agg=rss Yao Wang, Xiaoling Ma, Ying Wen, Yaqing Zheng, Guoping Duan et al.<br/> Phytic acid was introduced as a binder to construct a controllable structure at an electrode surface. In this paper, phytic acid and gold nanoparticles were assembled onto the surface of a gold electrode layer-by-layer to form a three-dimensional mesoporous gold interface. Then, a high sensitive hor ... [J. Electrochem. Soc. 157, K5 (2009)] published Tue Nov 3, 2009. Growth of ZnSeTe Nanotips and the Fabrication of ZnSeTe Nanotip-Based Photodetector http://link.aip.org/link/?JES/157/K1/1&agg=rss S. J. Chang, C. H. Hsiao, S. C. Hung, S. H. Chih, B. W. Lan et al.<br/> We reported the growth of high density ternary ZnSeTe nanotips on oxidized Si(100) substrate and the fabrication of the ZnSeTe nanotip-based photodetector. The as-grown ZnSeTe nanotips exhibited a mixture of cubic zinc blende and hexagonal wurtzite structures. The average length of the ZnSeTe nanoti ... [J. Electrochem.
