Core/Shell/Shell Nanowire Photocathodes for Neutral pH Water Splitting
Silicon is the most widely used semiconductor for solar cells [ 1–4 ] and has also shown promising performances in photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells for hydrogen production. [ 5–10 ] Silicon photoelectrodes with nano/micro structures such as nano/ micro wire array [ 9,11 ] and black silicon [ 7 ] have exhibited improved PEC performances. Silicon nanowire (NW) arrays, in particular, are of consid...
متن کاملHigh-performance n-Si/α-Fe2O3 core/shell nanowire array photoanode towards photoelectrochemical water splitting.
Many narrow band-gap semiconductors cannot fulfil the energetic requirements for water splitting, thus the assistance of large external voltages to complete the water decomposition reaction is required. Through thermal decomposition of Fe(NO3)3 on n-Si nanowires prepared by the chemical etching method, we fabricated a high-performance n-Si/α-Fe2O3 core/shell nanowire array photoanode that exhib...
متن کاملAu@CdS Core–Shell Nanoparticles‐Modified ZnO Nanowires Photoanode for Efficient Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
Hydrogen production from water splitting using solar energy based on photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells has attracted increasing attention because it leaves less of a carbon footprint and has economic superiority of solar and hydrogen energy. Oxide semiconductors such as ZnO possessing high stability against photocorrosion in hole scavenger systems have been widely used to build photoanodes of PE...
متن کاملSimultaneously efficient light absorption and charge separation in WO3/BiVO4 core/shell nanowire photoanode for photoelectrochemical water oxidation.
We report a scalably synthesized WO3/BiVO4 core/shell nanowire photoanode in which BiVO4 is the primary light-absorber and WO3 acts as an electron conductor. These core/shell nanowires achieve the highest product of light absorption and charge separation efficiencies among BiVO4-based photoanodes to date and, even without an added catalyst, produce a photocurrent of 3.1 mA/cm(2) under simulated...
متن کاملCore-shell silicon nanowire solar cells
Silicon nanowires can enhance broadband optical absorption and reduce radial carrier collection distances in solar cell devices. Arrays of disordered nanowires grown by vapor-liquid-solid method are attractive because they can be grown on low-cost substrates such as glass, and are large area compatible. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that an array of disordered silicon nanowires surrounded...
