Transparent carbon electrodes for spectroelectrochemical studiesWalker, Erin Kate 13 November 2012 (has links)
This dissertation describes the assessment and use of carbon optically transparent electrodes (C-OTEs) based on pyrolyzed photoresist films (PPFs) as a platform for spectroelectrochemical investigations. C-OTEs are examined for use in UV-Vis spectroelectrochemistry and electrogenerated chemiluminescence and compared to non-transparent glassy carbon (GC) and the conventional transparent electrode indium tin oxide (ITO). Chapter 1 provides a general overview of transparent electrodes, carbon electrodes, and spectroelectrochemistry. Chapter 2 details a UV-Vis spectroelectrochemical investigation of electrogenerated graphitic oxides (EGO) on the surface of the C-OTE in the presence of KCl. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and time of flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy are used to determine EGO composition. Several supporting electrolytes are investigated to determine the mechanism of EGO formation. Chapter 3 details experiments to electrochemically access the exciton emission from self-assembled double-walled tubular J-aggregates via electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL). Optimization of ECL intensity with respect to the coreactant concentration and the supporting electrolyte pH is performed on opaque glassy carbon electrodes. ECL and fluorescence spectra are compared, and C-OTEs are utilized to determine the source of disagreement between the spectra. Chapter 4 describes the preparation and characterization (i.e. transparency, thickness, sheet resistance, rms roughness, and electroactive surface area) of C-OTEs and explores C-OTEs for general use in ECL under a variety of conditions. Simultaneous cyclic voltammograms and ECL transients are obtained for three thicknesses of PPFs and compared to non-transparent GC and the conventional transparent electrode ITO in both front face and transmission electrode cell geometries. Despite positive potential shifts in oxidation and ECL peaks, attributed to the internal resistance of the PPFs that result from their nanoscale thickness, the PPFs display similar ECL activity to GC, including the low oxidation potential observed for amine coreactants on hydrophobic electrodes. Overall, C-OTEs are promising electrodes for spectroelectrochemical applications because they yield higher ECL than ITO in both oxidative-reductive and reductive-oxidative ECL modes, are more stable in alkaline solutions, display a wide potential window of stability, and have tunable transparency for more efficient detection of light in the transmission cell geometry. Future directions for this research are discussed in Chapter 5, which outlines several approaches to designing and improving spectroelectrochemical sensors. / text

Interfacial Electrochemistry and Surface Characterization: Hydrogen Terminated Silicon, Electrolessly Deposited Palladium & Platinum on Pyrolyzed Photoresist Films and Electrodeposited Copper on IridiumChan, Raymond 12 1900 (has links)
Hydrogen terminated silicon surfaces play an important role in the integrated circuit (IC) industry. Ultra-pure water is extensively used for the cleaning and surface preparation of silicon surfaces. This work studies the effects of ultra-pure water on hydrogen passivated silicon surfaces in a short time frame of 120 minutes using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy – attenuated total reflection techniques. Varying conditions of ultra-pure water are used. This includes dissolved oxygen poor media after nitrogen bubbling and equilibration under nitrogen atmosphere, as well as metal contaminated solutions. Both microscopically rough and ideal monohydride terminated surfaces are examined. Hydrogen terminated silicon is also used as the sensing electrode for a potentiometric sensor for ultra-trace amounts of metal contaminants. Previous studies show the use of this potentiometric electrode sensor in hydrofluoric acid solution. This work is able to shows sensor function in ultra-pure water media without the need for further addition of hydrofluoric acid. This is considered a boon for the sensor due to the hazardous nature of hydrofluoric acid. Thin carbon films can be formed by spin coating photoresist onto silicon substrates and pyrolyzing at 1000 degrees C under reducing conditions. This work also shows that the electroless deposition of palladium and platinum may be accomplished in hydrofluoric acid solutions to attain palladium and platinum nanoparticles on a this film carbon surface for use as an electrode. Catalysis of these substrates is studied using hydrogen evolution in acidic media, cyclic voltammetry, and catalysis of formaldehyde. X-ray diffractometry (XRD) is used to ensure that there is little strain on palladium and platinum particles. Iridium is thought to be a prime candidate for investigation as a new generation copper diffusion barrier for the IC industry. Copper electrodeposition on iridium is studied to address the potential of iridium as a copper diffusion barrier. Copper electrodeposition is studied using a current-transient technique to obtain insight into the nucleation and growth mechanism. Copper on iridum was annealed up to 600 degrees C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and XRD confirm that electrodeposited copper exists in a metallic state. XRD shows that copper exists in the characteristic face-centered cubic (111) form. XRD also confirms the stability of the copper-iridium interface with no new peaks after annealing, which is indicative that no interaction occurs. Scanning electron microscopy, and Scotch ® Tape peel tests confirm the uniformity and strength of copper on iridium even after annealing to 600 degrees C.

Synthèse d'électrodes carbonées pour la détection électrochimique et insertion dans un système microfluidique / Carbon electrodes synthesis for electrochemical detection and insertion in a microfluidic systemPézard, Julien 18 December 2015 (has links)
L’objectif de ce travail de thèse est de préparer des microélectrodes à base carbone, montrant des propriétés électrochimiques adéquates pour réaliser des dispositifs microfluidiques qui pourraient servir à la détection de polluants en milieu aqueux. Ce travail décrit la réalisation d’électrodes carbonées de graphène, résine pyrolysée et diamant sur support SiC, permettant leur structuration et intégration dans un procédé d’étapes technologiques . L’élaboration de ces éléments implique la mise en œuvre de techniques utilisées dans la microélectronique : les procédés de mise en forme tels que la lithographie et la gravure sèche, mais aussi des techniques de dépôt ou encore de traitements thermiques. Cette thèse expose également l’élaboration d’électrodes composites à base de fibres de carbone et de polydiméthylsiloxane (PDMS) pour la réalisation de dispositifs microfluidiques simples et peu onéreux, permettant l’analyse électrochimique en flux continu. Les propriétés électrochimiques (cinétique, surface active, réversibilité, domaine d’électroactivité…) ainsi que physiques (rugosité, résistivité électrique…) de ces matériaux ont été déterminées. L’objectif principal de ce travail de caractérisation étant de définir les conditions optimales de synthèse menant à des matériaux viables pour des applications électrochimiques et bioélectrochimiques. Les performances de ces électrodes pour la détection électrochimique d’espèces en solution ont été étudiées sur des modèles de molécules redox et confrontées à la littérature. La biocompatibilité de ces électrodes a également été vérifiée à travers la réalisation de biocapteurs enzymatiques pour la détection de l’acétylthiocholine. L’activité de l’enzyme acétylcholinestérase (AChE) déposée à la surface de nos différentes matériaux carbonés a été conservée et a permis l’utilisation de ces électrodes modifiées comme transducteurs pour la détection de l’acétylthiocholine. / This thesis work is aimed at preparing novel carbon based microelectrodes, revealing adequate electrochemical characteristics for the realization of microfluidic devices which could apply for the detection of biological pollutants in aqueous environment. This work describes the realization of carbon based electrodes made of grahene, pyrolyzed photoresist films, and diamond on silicon carbide, allowing their structuration and integration in a process formed by multiple technological steps. The elaboration of these elements implies the use of technics used in microelectronics. Processes of patterning such as lithography and dry etching, but also deposition technics or even thermal treatments were used. This thesis also shows the elaboration of carbon microfibers and polydiméthylsiloxane (PDMS) based composite electrodes for the realization of simple and cheap microfluidic devices for electrochemical analysis in continuous flow. The electrochemical properties (kinetics, active surface, reversibility, potential range…) but also physical properties (rugosity, electrical resistivity…) of these materials have been determined. The main aim of the characterizations work has been to determine the optimal synthesis conditions leading to viable materials for electrochemical and bioelectrochemical applications. The performances of these electrodes for electrochemical detection of species in solution were investigated on classical redox molecules used in literature for comparison. The biocompatibility of these electrodes was also verified through the realization of enzymatic biosensors for the detection of acétylthiocholine. The activity of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase’s (AChE), deposited on the surface of our different carbon materials, was kept and permitted the use of these modified electrodes as transducers for acetylthiocholine detection.

Dispositivos eletroquímicos flexíveis empregando papel pirolisado /Damasceno, Sergio January 2019 (has links)
Orientador: Carlos Cesar Bof Bufon / Resumo: Materiais de carbono obtidos por pirólise de celulose e biopolímeros sintéticos têm sido am-plamente investigados para aplicações no desenvolvimento de dispositivos eletrônicos. Eles apresentam excelentes propriedades elétricas, mas são extremamente frágeis. Então uma alter-nativa seria integrar esses materiais em elastômeros. Assim, para a contornar a fragilidade e a questão de adesão de materiais condutores em substratos alongáveis, neste trabalho é proposto um novo método de fabricação para desenvolvimento de dispositivos eletroquímicos. Inspira-do no sistema redox eficiente das plantas e que está firmemente aderido ao solo pela estrutura das raízes, foi desenvolvido um processo de retardo do fluxo capilar do polidimetilsiloxano (PDMS) na estrutura pirolisada modificada, de forma que fibras pirolisadas integradas no elas-tômero possam garantir adesão e estabilidade mecânica, e que parte delas fique exposta para possibilitar atividade eletroquímica na interface. Baseado no modelo matemático de Lucas-Washburn, as mudanças na superfície das fibras de papel por conta da adição de acetato de celulose e a diminuição do raio dos poros resulta no retardo do fluxo da solução polimérica viscosa na estrutura porosa. Como resultado foi obtida uma superfície de eletrodo de carbono altamente ativa para reações redox. Além disso, testes mecânicos com o dispositivo flexiona-do, dobrado, e alongado, demonstraram que uma deformação linear de até 75% do tamanho inicial não tem efeitos nas pr...

They show excellent electrical properties but are extremely fragile and prone to crack. Then an alternative to address this challenge and the adhesion problem reported on literature, a new fabrication route for a flexible and stretchable electrochemical device is proposed. Inspired by trees redox system that is highly adhered on the ground and based on Lucas Wash-Burn model, the pyrolyzed paper is modified with cellulose acetate. Then, in a process named delayed capillary flow of elastomers the surface changes in paper fibers and the decrease in pore radius results in a delay on capillary flow of viscous polymer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) solution on its porous structure. As a result, a highly active carbon surface exposed on the top for redox reactions is produced, which shows a remarkable performance and is similar to tree leaves. Also, mechanical deformation studies on the new bendable, twistable, flexible, and stretchable device reveal a linear stretch up to 75%, without effects on its electrochemical properties. These mechanical properties are similar to tree roots highly adhered on the ground. The electrode working area was nanofunctionalized with polydopamine (PDA) that is used for anchoring redox mediators and improvement of wettability with unprecedent homogeneous spreading of liquids and development of self-collection liquid samples. This system is... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

[en] CARBONS FROM PYROLYZED BAMBOO AS CONDUCTIVE MATERIALS FOR ELECTRIC, ELECTROTHERMAL AND ELECTROCHEMICAL APPLICATIONS / [pt] MATERIAL DE CARBONO CONDUTOR A PARTIR DA PIRÓLISE DO BAMBU PARA APLICAÇÕES ELÉTRICAS, ELETROTÉRMICAS E ELETROQUÍMICASLAYNE OLIVEIRA DE LUCAS GONTIJO 06 June 2023 (has links)
[pt] O bambu é rico em biomassa lignocelulósica, e anatomicamente é composto por um
sistema de microcanais vasculares alinhados, retos e paralelos entre si. Suas micro e
nanoestruturas podem ser modificadas através do tratamento térmico em altas
temperaturas (carbonização/pirólise) para obtenção de propriedades elétricas sem a perda
da estrutura 3D, possibilitando a aplicação em dispositivos eletroquímicos e
microfluídicos eletricamente condutores. As amostras de bambu gigante Dendrocalamus
giganteous foram tratadas sob atmosfera de nitrogênio em temperaturas variando de 200
a 1000 graus C e caracterizadas por TGA, ATR-FT-IR, RAMAN, DRX, XPS, HR-TEM, ICP-EOS, (Microtomografia computadorizada de raios-X), I/V, Voltametria cíclica e análise termográfica IR. Foi possível realizar análise
estrutural e química; determinação de composições, identificação da transição de fase da
estrutura cristalina da celulose para carbono grafítico/turbostrático; medir as
condutividades térmica e elétrica. As amostras B-200, B-400 e B-600 apresentaram-se
isolantes, enquanto B-700 apresentou-se resistiva (resistividade elétrica)= 1,5 x 10-1
(ohms) m e B-1000
comportamento ôhmico (condutividade elétrica)= 8,4 x 10 2 S m-1 (siemens)/ metro). O dispositivo B-700 foi utilizado como
microaquecedor de solventes polares (H2O e etilenoglicol) em regime de fluxo contínuo
e chapa de aquecimento, com eficiência de conversão eletrotérmica em fluxo, estabilidade
estrutural e reprodutibilidade eletrotérmica. O microaquecedor e a chapa aquecedora
alcançaram temperaturas máximas de 340 graus C (0,8 A 6,3V) e 490 graus C (2,0 A, 5,3 V),
respectivamente. Isso demonstra que os materiais de bambu pirolisado obtidos nessa
pesquisa são promissores para aplicações em supercapacitores, eletrodos, entre outros. / [en] Bamboo is rich in biomass and carbon and, anatomically, is composed of a system
of vascular microchannels that are aligned, straight, and parallel to each other. The micro
and nanostructures of bamboo can be modified through heat treatment at high
temperatures (carbonization/pyrolysis) to obtain electrical properties without losing the
3D structure of the material, which allows the application in electrically conductive
electrochemical and microfluidic devices. The present work investigated the influence
of heat treatment at high temperatures on the structure and properties of samples of
Dendrocalamus giganteous giant bamboo. The samples were subjected to heat treatment
under a Nitrogen atmosphere at temperatures ranging from 200 to 1000 degrees C and
characterized by TGA, ATR-FT-IR, RAMAN, DRX, XPS, HR-TEM, ICP-EOS, (X-ray computed microtomography), I/V, Cyclic Voltammetry, and IR thermographic analysis. This set of techniques provided
structural and chemical information; compositions, the phase transition from cellulose
crystal structure to graphic/turbostratic carbon; thermal and electrical conductivity.
Samples B-200, B-400, and B-600 showed insulating properties, while B-700 showed
resistive behavior (electrical resistivity)= 1.8 x 10-1 (ohms) m and B-1000 showed ohmic behavior (Electric conductivity)= 8.4 x 10 2 S m-1 (siemens)/ meter). The B-700 device was used as a microheater of polar solvents (H2O and ethylene
glycol) in a continuous flow regime and heating plate and showed the efficiency of
electrothermal conversion in flow mode, structural stability, and electrothermal
reproducibility. The microheater and hot plate reached maximum temperatures of 340 degrees C
(0.8 A, 6.3 V) and 490 degrees C (2.0 A, 5.3 V), respectively. These results show that the
pyrolyzed bamboo materials obtained in this research are promising for applications in
supercapacitors, electrodes, heaters, and catalytic microheaters in continuous flow.
