METHOD OF DEPOSITION AND SIMULTANEOUS DECORATION OF NANOTUBOS ON METALLIC ELECTRODES

METHOD OF DEPOSITION AND SIMULTANEOUS DECORATION OF NANOTUBOS ON METALLIC ELECTRODES

NOVELTY – The method involves depositing a nanostructure along a gap from 0.5-10 pm. Di-electrophoresis technique is used for deposition. Standard metal electrode ends are binded. Deposition voltage is simultaneously or alternately applied using an aqueous medium between electrodes. Potential for continuous polarization between the electrodes is determined. Metals are used to activate electrochemical process for formation of nanoparticles from the electrodes. Current-voltage curve is drawn. Samples from a morphological point are characterized. USE – Method for deposition and simultaneous decoration of a single-dimensional nanostructure i.e. carbon nanotube, on a metallic electrode with gold in an opto-electronic device e.g. gas sensor, biosensor and photo detector. ADVANTAGE – The method enables independently controlling amount of nanotubes and generated gold nanoparticles for controlling decoration and deposition processes in a better manner. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) – The drawing shows a photograph of MEV-EC images of a pair of gold electrodes.
