| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Unique 3-dimensional nanostructure comprising of interpenetrating networks of zinc oxide and rhodamine B was obtained by cathodic electrodeposition from a mixed solution containing zinc chloride, oxygen and rhodamine B. The resulting hybrid thin film exhibit a function as an active layer for solar cells, indicating the possibility to realize a manufacturing process of hybrid solar cells based on automatic self-assembly from one-pot. Through electrochemical analysis of the relevant reactions, structure and compositional analysis of the product, and mathematical simulation, the hybrid nanostructure was found to be the world’s first example of nano-scale Turing pattern that is explained by reaction-diffusion mechanism in which rhodamine B and zinc oxide act as activator and inhibitor, respectively.
