Enhancing indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film adhesiveness using the coupling agent silane
چکیده انگلیسی

The coupling agent γ-mercapto propyl trimethoxy silane (WD-80) was used to enhance the adhesiveness of the indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film, which was prepared on a glass substrate using the sol-gel method. The nano-scratching test, XRD, TEM, SEM, and UV-vis spectrophotometer were employed to examine film adhesion, crystal structure, surface morphology, and transmittance. The results indicated that silane coupling agent, used in low concentration, did not change the film structure but increased the critical load of the film by 49%, from 4.16 mN to 6.20 mN, when the film was peeled off from the substrate. The principle by which the coupling agent works is discussed. In addition to increasing with the light wavelength, the average transmittance of the film in the visible range varied from 78.9% to 83.6%. Moreover, as a function of the WD-80 silane coupling agent, the film exhibited a high smoothness and density due to the orderly arrangement of particles.
