Fabrication of polyoxometalate-based nano/micrometer composite films by elect…

Abstract. Keggin-type heteropolyanion H3PMo12O40 encapsulated by a cationic surfactant dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride (DODA·Cl) has been assembled on ITO substrates using an electrophoretic approach. The films were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), IR spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and cyclic voltammetry. The AFM images ex…
