Abstract

The electrochemical synthesis and ion irradiation effects of polyaniline/zinc oxide (PANI/ZnO) nanocomposite films on stainless steel substrates were investigated in this study. The structural, morphological and electrical properties of the films were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and current-voltage (I-V) measurements. The results show that the films have a nanofiber network structure with an average diameter of 50-60 nm. The vibrational modes and structural properties of the films are influenced by ion fluence. The electrical conductivity and mobility of the films increase significantly at low fluence (1.0 × 1011 ions/cm2), reaching values of 1.14 × 10-2 S/cm and 3.56 × 10-5 cm2/V-s, respectively. However, at high fluence, electrical properties degrade due to the damage caused by the ion irradiation. This study demonstrates the potential of PANI/ZnO nanocomposite films for applications in the optoelectronic devices and energy storage devices.
