RESUMO
New silsesquioxane incorporating a carbazole groups (PCTSQ) has been synthesized by a click thiol-ene reaction and a subsequent sol-gel reaction. To evaluate the electric property of this hybrid, diode devices have been fabricated by using PCTSQ thin film by spin-coating onto n-type ZnO film prepared by the electrodeposition method. The thin film hybrid devices showed good electric characteristics and high rectification ratio, as well as worked as a rectifier.
RESUMO
Polystyrene particles incorporating poly(methylphenylsilane) (PMPS) were synthesized by miniemulsion polymerization. UV irradiation of the emulsion under air in the presence of metal salts such as HAuCl4.4H2O, AgNO3, and Na2PdCl4 led to the formation of metal nanoparticles on the surface of polymer particles; thus, metal nanoparticle/polymer hybrid particles were obtained. The structures of the hybrid particles were confirmed by the surface plasmon resonance band and transmission electron microscopy images. The formation of metal nanoparticles depended on the functional groups and charge on the surface of the polymer particle. The metal nanoparticles were formed due to the reduction of metal ions, accompanied by the oxidation of PMPS. The interaction between the surface of the polymer particle and the metal ions plays an important role in the formation of the metal nanoparticle.
