eng Abstract:
Colloid solutions of metal Pt, Pd and Pt/Pd alloy nanoparticles by reverse micelle technique in isooctane were prepared. Layers of the nanoparticles on InP and GaN substrates using electrophoretic deposition were prepared. Metal nanoparticles in the colloid and in deposits were characterized by SEM. Schottky diodes were fabricated by application of colloidal graphite on nanoparticle layer. An increase in current in hydrogen-nitrogen mixture was measured for hydrogen concentrations between 5 and 1000 ppm.
