Broadband telecom transparency of semiconductor-coated metal nanowires: more transparent than glass.
Metallic nanowires (NW) coated with a high permittivity dielectric are proposed as means to strongly reduce the light scattering of the conducting NW, rendering them transparent at infrared wavelengths of interest in telecommunications. Based on a simple, universal law derived from electrostatics arguments, we find appropriate parameters to reduce the scattering efficiency of hybrid metal-diele...
متن کاملMetal-catalyzed semiconductor nanowires
Semiconductor nanowires have become an important building block for nanotechnology. The growth of semiconductor nanowires using a metal catalyst via the vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) or vapor–solid–solid (VSS) mechanism has yielded growth directions in 〈1 1 1〉, 〈1 0 0〉 and 〈1 1 0〉 etc. In this paper, we summarize and discuss a broad range of factors that affect the growth direction of VLS or VSS gro...
متن کاملMetal-semiconductor nanocontacts: silicon nanowires
Silicon nanowires assembled from clusters or etched from the bulk, connected to aluminum electrodes and passivated, are studied with large-scale local-density-functional simulations. Short ( approximately 0.6 nm) wires are fully metallized by metal-induced gap states resulting in finite conductance ( approximately e(2)/h). For longer wires ( approximately 2.5 nm) nanoscale Schottky barriers dev...
متن کاملMetal nanogrids, nanowires, and nanofi bers for transparent electrodes
VOLUME 36 • OCTOBER 2011 • www.mrs.org/bulletin © 2011 Materials Research Society Introduction Transparent electrodes are ubiquitously used in optoelectronic devices where light must pass through a section, and current or voltage needs to be applied. These devices include thin-fi lm solar cells (organic, inorganic, hybrid), displays (liquid-crystal display, plasma display, organic light-emittin...
متن کاملPreparation of Metal Chalcogenides Semiconductor Nanowires and Microtubes
Recently, a great deal of attention has been paid to the fabrication of highly ordered nanowire arrays because of their fundamental importance and potential applications. We fabricated CdS:Mn2+:Cu+ nano and microwires and PbTe and PbSe nanowires and microtubes using electrochemical deposition and template method. The morphology of nanowires and microtubes was observed by scanning electron micro...
