| In this study, antimony doped tin oxide films were deposited on multiwall carbon nanotube buckypaper and Cr coated stainless steel substrates using a radio frequency magnetron sputtering process in a mixed oxygen/argon (5/95) gas environment. The depositions of antimony doped tin oxide on the multiwall carbon nanotube buckypaper and stainless steel substrates were carried out using the parameters organized as: target composition antimony doped tin oxide (SnO2:Sb = 90:10 wt%); Total system pressure 1 Pa; Sputtering power (RF) 100 W. The surface morphology of the antimony doped tin oxide films was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The crystallographic structure of the samples was determined by X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical properties of antimony doped tin oxide and antimony doped tin oxide-multiwall carbon nanotube nanocomposite anodes containing CR2016 cells were measured by galvanostatic charge-discharge experiments. |
