Researchers have developed a new sol-gel technique to create a uniform and highly effective Co3O4 thin film on glass substrates. This technique involves pulling the glass substrate out of a solution of Co3O4 at a speed of 9 millimeter per second. The resulting film is compressed and homogeneous, with a crystal structure and a surface roughness of 51 nanometers. The film is also 335 nanometers thick and has an optical band gap of 2.77 electron volts. Additionally, the film is hydrophilic, with a contact angle of 60 degrees. These results suggest that the sol-gel technique is a promising method for producing high-quality Co3O4 thin film for various applications.
