Optimizing TiO2/Ag/TiO2 Multilayer Conductivity

This document discusses a TiO2/Ag/TiO2 (TAT) multilayer structure and how the thickness of the middle Ag layer affects conduction. There is a critical thickness range of 8-13nm for the Ag layer, where transmittance is highest and reflectance lowest. Modulating the Ag layer structure with thin films, nanoparticles or nanowires could increase transmittance while decreasing reflectance for optimal light transmission properties.

TiO2/Ag/TiO2 (TAT) multilayer structure

Conduction in TAT multilayer depends on the thickness of middle Ag layer. Middle


Ag layer plays a crucial part in conduction. As per the previous reports, the
thickness of sandwitched Ag layer should be in between 8-13 nm. Actually there is
a critical thickness of Ag layer above or below which transmittance decreases. Our
main intention should be increase the transmittance and decrease the reflectance. If
the middle Ag layer is contiguous i.e. Thin film (TF) it will decrease the
transmittance. So now we can work in this way
1. We can modulate the structure of Ag i.e. TF, NP and NW
2. If we fabricate Ag NWs sandwitched between two TiO2 TFs, what will be
the effect on transmittance or reflectance? I think transmittance will
increase.
