TL;DR: Through correlated electron microscopy, single NP light scattering intensity is related to particle size according to Mie theory, enabling rapid particle size determination and the construction of voltammetric curves for individual NPs.
Abstract: Dark-field scattering spectroelectrochemistry is used to analyze the electrochemical formation of individual Ag nanoparticles (NPs) at the surface of an indium tin oxide electrode. Heterogeneities in redox potentials among NPs not visible in bulk electrochemical measurements are presented for the first time. Through correlated electron microscopy, single NP light scattering intensity is related to particle size according to Mie theory, enabling rapid particle size determination and the construction of voltammetric curves for individual NPs.

TL;DR: In this paper, electroluminescence from two-layer organic diodes made of poly(3-methyl-4-octylthiophene) and poly(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole films between electrodes of indium tin oxide and Ca/Al was reported.
Abstract: We report on electroluminescence from two-layer organic diodes made of poly(3-methyl-4-octylthiophene) and 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole films between electrodes of indium tin oxide and Ca/Al. The diodes emitted light in the green-blue range; the electroluminescence spectra varied between diodes with different thicknesses of the polymer and molecular layers. The optical phenomena were simulated with a model accounting for interference effects; simulated results showed that the electroluminescence from the organic diode can be due neither to luminescence of the polymer nor of the molecular layer. These model simulations, together with electrochemical measurements, can be interpreted as evidence for an indirect optical transition at the polymer/molecule interface that only occurs in a strong electric field. We label this transition an electroplex.

TL;DR: In this paper, a progress report summarizes recent advances toward understanding the relationship between the structure of metal nanowires, the electrical and optical properties of metal wires, and the properties of a network of metal wire networks.
Abstract: There is an ongoing drive to replace the most common transparent conductor, indium tin oxide (ITO), with a material that gives comparable performance, but can be coated from solution at speeds orders of magnitude faster than the sputtering processes used to deposit ITO. Metal nanowires are currently the only alternative to ITO that meets these requirements. This Progress Report summarizes recent advances toward understanding the relationship between the structure of metal nanowires, the electrical and optical properties of metal nanowires, and the properties of a network of metal nanowires. Using the structure–property relationship of metal nanowire networks as a roadmap, this Progress Report describes different synthetic strategies to produce metal nanowires with the desired properties. Practical aspects of processing metal nanowires into high-performance transparent conducting films are discussed, as well as the use of nanowire films in a variety of applications.

TL;DR: In this article, a quasialigned one-dimensional zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructure was used to construct a double-source double-tube CVD process for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Abstract: Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were fabricated using a quasialigned one-dimensional zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructure. The ZnO nanostructures were grown on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrate via a thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It has been considered that thermal CVD is not suitable for the growth of ZnO nanostructure on ITO/glass due to the high processing temperature. However, we have demonstrated that a densely populated ZnO nanostructure can be prepared on ITO/glass substrate by a double-source double-tube CVD process. The power conversion efficiency of our device is 0.6%.
