The objective of this work is twofold: First, the colorful nature of coatings made it possible to visualize spray patterns and coverage using an optical microscope and image analysis software, although detailed analysis of film roughness, thickness, and morphology was also performed using sophisticated characterization tools, such as confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. These results help in understanding the effect of processing parameters on spray coating on rough surfaces, such as already spray-coated solar cell films in a stacked thin film solar cell device. The underneath spray-on layers (such as a buffer layer underneath the active layer in a polymer solar cell) are usually rough. Paper substrate resembles such rough surfaces. Second, our results can provide insight into the feasibility of using paper substrates to fabricate paper-based photovoltaic solar cells. Effects of substrate type (wetting, porosity, and roughness), substrate temperature, spray nozzle travel speed over the substrate, precursor solution flow rate, and the number of spray passes are studied on coating characteristics. A novel approach is also employed to improve the coating characteristics via imposing ultrasonic vibration to the paper substrates, where the vibration results in a significant improvement in all coating indices.

Controlled wetting/dewetting through substrate vibration-assisted spray coating (SVASC) / M. Habibi in JOURNAL OF COATINGS TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH, Vol. 13, N° 2 (03/2016)  

[article]  inJOURNAL OF COATINGS TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH > Vol. 13, N° 2 (03/2016) . - p. 211-225 Titre : Controlled wetting/dewetting through substrate vibration-assisted spray coating (SVASC) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : M. Habibi, Auteur ; Morteza Eslamian, Auteur ; F. Soltani-Kordshuli, Auteur ; Fatemeh Zabihi, Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p. 211-225 Note générale : Bibliogr.

In that work, the SVASC method was introduced, and its effectiveness on the uniformity and electrical conductivity of PEDOT:PSS films, used in emerging solar cells, was demonstrated. The present work reports unprecedented results on the effect of the ultrasonic vibration power on wetting/dewetting of PEDOT:PSS films. It is observed that, while the application of a low-power ultrasonic vibration (LPUV) improves the surface wetting and film coverage through improving droplet spreading and coalescence and repairing of the dewetted areas, a high-power ultrasonic vibration (HPUV) promotes dewetting, resulting in less coverage and the formation of a nonuniform film. The improved wetting due to the application of the LPUV has opened a window of opportunity for the fabrication of intact thin films and related thin film devices. On the other hand, the controlled dewetting process due to the application of the HPUV may have novel applications in template fabrication and self-assembly in nanotechnology. Here, we also study the effects of the application of multipass spraying compared with single-pass spraying strategy, and the application of using two co-solvents on PEDOT:PSS film characteristics. The results confirm that the utilization of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) as a co-solvent added to the PEDOT:PSS precursor solution improves the surface wettability and film coverage, compared to the films made using demethylformamide (DMF), as the co-solvent.

Performance enhancement of large-area graphene–polymer flexible transparent conductive films fabricated by ultrasonic substrate vibration-assisted rod coating / Zhi Li in JOURNAL OF COATINGS TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH, Vol. 16, N° 6 (11/2019)  

[article]  inJOURNAL OF COATINGS TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH > Vol. 16, N° 6 (11/2019) . - p. 1773-1780 Titre : Performance enhancement of large-area graphene–polymer flexible transparent conductive films fabricated by ultrasonic substrate vibration-assisted rod coating Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Zhi Li, Auteur ; Xinyu Zhang, Auteur ; Long Shen, Auteur ; Zhijun Fan, Auteur ; Xuewen Chen, Auteur ; Min Chen, Auteur ; Shaohua Qin, Auteur ; Fatemeh Zabihi, Auteur ; Morteza Eslamian, Auteur ; Qianli Chen, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : p. 1773-1780 Note générale : Bibliogr. Langues : Américain (ame) Catégories : Caractérisation Composites Conducteurs organiques Electrodes Electronique -- Matériaux Graphène Le graphène est un cristal bidimensionnel (monoplan) de carbone dont l'empilement constitue le graphite. Il a été isolé en 2004 par Andre Geim, du département de physique de l'université de Manchester, qui a reçu pour cette découverte le prix Nobel de physique en 2010 avec Konstantin Novoselov. Il peut être produit de deux manières : par extraction mécanique du graphite (graphène exfolié) dont la technique a été mise au point en 2004, ou par chauffage d'un cristal de carbure de silicium, qui permet la libération des atomes de silicium (graphène epitaxié). Record en conduction thermique jusqu'à 5300 W.m-1.K-1. C'est aussi un matériaux conducteur. Poly(3,4-éthylènedioxythiophène) Polystyrène sulfone Revêtements organiques Transparence (optique) Ultrasons Index. décimale : 667.9 Revêtements et enduits Résumé : The graphene/PEDOT:PSS composite thin films (GCFs) are promising candidates for transparent conductive electrodes in low-cost flexible thin-film devices, which can be applied in portable and flexible electronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes and organic solar cells. In this work, to improve the film characteristics, we impose ultrasonic vibration on the substrate, and therefore the wet coating, during the rod-coating preparation process of the GCFs, and study the effect of vibration power. The 5 x 5 cm2 thin films prepared on flexible polyethylene terephthalate with ultrasonic vibration imposed on the substrate of wet films demonstrate improved conductivity and reduced thickness. Ninefold enhancement in charge carrier concentration is observed when ultrasonic vibration is applied. The improved performance is ascribed to the eliminated pores in films, and rearrangement of graphene in the polymer network, brought about by nanometer-scale-amplitude ultrasonic vibrations. The electrical property of flexible films is demonstrated to be stable after multiple cycles of bending.
