Improved photovoltaic performance of silicon nanowire/organic hybrid solar cells by incorporating silver nanoparticles
Silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays show an excellent light-trapping characteristic and high mobility for carriers. Surface plasmon resonance of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) can be used to increase light scattering and absorption in solar cells. We fabricated a new kind of SiNW/organic hybrid solar cell by introducing AgNPs. Reflection spectra confirm the improved light scattering of AgNP-decorated ...
متن کاملFast Charge-Carrier Trapping in TiO2 Nanotubes
One-dimensional semiconductors such as nanowires and nanotubes are attractive materials for incorporation in photovoltaic devices as they potentially offer short percolation pathways to charge-collecting contacts. We report the observation of freeelectron lifetimes in TiO2 nanotubes of the order of tens of picoseconds. These lifetimes are surprisingly short compared to those determined in films...
متن کاملAu nanostructure-decorated TiO2 nanowires exhibiting photoactivity across entire UV-visible region for photoelectrochemical water splitting.
Here we demonstrate that the photoactivity of Au-decorated TiO2 electrodes for photoelectrochemical water oxidation can be effectively enhanced in the entire UV-visible region from 300 to 800 nm by manipulating the shape of the decorated Au nanostructures. The samples were prepared by carefully depositing Au nanoparticles (NPs), Au nanorods (NRs), and a mixture of Au NPs and NRs on the surface ...
متن کاملEnhanced photoelectrochemical properties of TiO2 nanorod arrays decorated with CdS nanoparticles
TiO2 nanorod arrays (TiO2 NRAs) sensitized with CdS nanoparticles were fabricated via successive ion layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR), and TiO2 NRAs were obtained by oxidizing Ti NRAs obtained through oblique angle deposition. The TiO2 NRAs decorated with CdS nanoparticles exhibited excellent photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic properties under visible light, and the one decorated with...
متن کاملHigh aspect ratio SiNW arrays with Ag nanoparticles decoration for strong SERS detection.
Well-ordered silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are applied as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. Laser interference lithography is used to fabricate large-area periodic nanostructures. By controlling the reaction time of metal assisted chemical etching, various aspect ratios of SiNWs are generated. Ag nanoparticles are decorated on the substrates via redox reaction to allow a good cov...
