Abstract
This current work using solution-casting preparation method to create flexible polymer composite materials including titanium dioxide (TiO2) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Then, using a wide beam homemade cold cathode ion generator the samples were irradiated by oxygen fluence of 4x1016, 8x1016, and 12x1016 ions.cm−2. Using EDX, contact angle and XRD techniques, the PVA/TiO2 composite film successful production was evaluated. The effects of ion exposure on the optical behavior are reported using UV-Vis technique. The PVA/TiO2 dispersion energy is 1.75 eV, increased to 2.21 eV, 2.66 eV, and 3.12 eV by irradiation of 4x1016, 8x1016, and 12x1016 ions.cm−2. Moreover, the refractive index (n0) of the PVA/TiO2 is 1.18 increased to 1.25, 1.32, and 1.40 respectively. Moreover, the oscillation energy E0 reduced from 4.24 eV for the PVA/TiO2 composite to 3.84 eV, 3.64 eV, and 3.27 eV, respectively. Thus, the changes in the optical and structural alterations in PVA/TiO2 films by ion irradiation, is employ for directed the treated PVA/TiO2 materials in various optoelectronic.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
