Electrophoretic Deposition(EPD) of 0.3mol%Bi2O3-doped with ZnO Nanoparticles

Abstract

In this study, the dispersion behaviors of the nano sized ZnO suspension was investigated by the consideration of electrostatic stabilization with organic solvent. The coagulation behaviors was also examined by changing particle number contration, applied forces, distance between electrode and deposition time. The thin film with uniform microstructure was prepared at the condition of the number concentration as ten to thirteen order, DC 5V, 1.5cm, 15 minutes respectively.The dense ZnO thin film with 0.4 micrometer thickness prepared at the condition of the 1050 degree centigrade for two hours soaking.
