Novel functional nano-coatings on glass by spray deposition

Abstract:

Nanocomposite thin films with gold nanoparticles embedded in a host metal oxide prepared by spray pyrolysis deposition have been investigated. A single-step process has been developed using a one-pot solution containing precursors for both gold nanoparticles and host metal oxides. The films obtained display combined features of colouration, electrical conductivity and solar control. In this study two precursors for gold nanoparticles were used: preformed gold colloids and HAuCl4. T...
