Study of a ternary blend system for bulk heterojunction thin film solar cells
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2016 , Article)
In this research, we report a bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cell consisting of a ternary blend system. Poly(3-hexylthiophene) P3HT is used as a donor and [6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methylester (PCBM) plays the role ...
Electro-sprayed PVA coating with texture-enriched surface morphology for augmented humidity sensing
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
This article reports the modified surface morphology of Poly-vinyl Alcohol (PVA) films using electro-spraying coating technique. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted to examine ...

This paper presents the photo-thermo-electrochemical (PEC) response of various combinations of the n-type indium arsenide (n-InAs) photo-electrode with different counter electrodes, i.e., Ag, Al, Cu, Pb, Zn and ITO. The ...
Optimization of ITO glass/TiO2 based DSSC photo-anodes through electrophoretic deposition and sintering techniques
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In the current study, TiO2 layers were deposited onto Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates at varied voltage levels ranging from 2.5 VDC to 7.5 VDC, using Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process. Subsequently, ...
Epoxy coatings modified with a new cerium phosphate inhibitor for smart corrosion protection of steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this work cerium tri(bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate) (Ce(DEHP)3) particles were used as anti-corrosion pigments in epoxy coatings applied on steel coupons. The composition of the corrosion inhibitor was designed to introduce ...
