Quantifying the traction force of a single cell by aligned silicon nanowire array.
The physical behaviors of stationary cells, such as the morphology, motility, adhesion, anchorage, invasion and metastasis, are likely to be important for governing their biological characteristics. A change in the physical properties of mammalian cells could be an indication of disease. In this paper, we present a silicon-nanowire-array based technique for quantifying the mechanical behavior o...
متن کاملEffect of Silicon Nanowire on Crystalline Silicon Solar Cell Characteristics
Nanowires (NWs) are recently used in several sensor or actuator devices to improve their ordered characteristics. Silicon nanowire (Si NW) is one of the most attractive one-dimensional nanostructures semiconductors because of its unique electrical and optical properties. In this paper, silicon nanowire (Si NW), is synthesized and characterized for application in photovoltaic device. Si NWs are ...
متن کاملStudy the Effect of Silicon Nanowire Length on Characteristics of Silicon Nanowire Based Solar Cells by Using Impedance Spectroscopy
Silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays were produced by electroless method on polycrystalline Si substrate, in HF/ AgNO3 solution. Although the monocrystalline silicon wafer is commonly utilized as a perfect substrate, polycrystalline silicon as a low cost substrate was used in this work for photovoltaic applications. In order to study the influence of etching time (which affects the SiNWs length) on d...
متن کاملSilicon nanowire array photelectrochemical cells.
The development of efficient but inexpensive solar cells is an important current challenge. Semiconductor nanowires provide new opportunities for addressing the cost and efficiency issues of conventional photovoltaic (PV) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells. Recent studies of semiconductor nanowire growth1-3 show that it is relatively easy to make arrays of vertically oriented single crystals,...
