摘要
Films of zinc oxide and related compounds [ZnO, ZnOx(OH)(y), Zn(OH)(x)Cl-y] are electrodeposited cathodically in aqueous zinc chloride solutions using dissolved oxygen as a precursor. The influence of the precursor concentrations, pH, and deposition temperature on the growth, composition, an properties of the films are investigated by means of in situ techniques: voltammetry, electrochemical quartz-crystal microgravimetry, surface pH, and ex situ techniques: X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The deposition mechanism is analyzed in terms of electrochemically induced surface precipitation due to an increase of local pH resulting from the oxygen reduction reaction. This approach allows us to explain the formation of either zinc hydroxychloride compounds or zinc oxide from their calculated solubility diagrams. In conditions of the formation of ZnO, a dramatic effect of tem temperature is observed, with a transition between amorphous insulating zinc oxyhydroxide to well-crystallized and conducting zinc oxide when the temperature increases (T-transition approximate to 50 degrees C).
