Electrochemistry of Carbon Nanotube Composite Electrodes
Carbon nanotubes can be considered as molecular-scale wires with high mechanical strength and different electronic properties (metallic, semiconducting or semimetallic) depending mainly on the tube symmetry [14]. These properties have been utilized for the development of various electrochemical sensors for monitoring gases as NO2 or NH3 [5], the oxidation of biomolecules (dopamine, ascorbic aci...
متن کاملInterpenetrating multiwall carbon nanotube electrodes for organic solar cells
Low concentrations of multiwall carbon nanotubes MWCNTs 1 wt % uniformly distributed within the donor layer of a heterojunction organic solar cell are shown to be an effective means of greatly reducing cell series resistance without compromising cell shunt resistance, resulting in an increase in cell fill factor of 50–60%. By chemically functionalizing MWCNTs with polar surface moieties, it is ...
متن کاملWater-soluble multiwall-carbon-nanotube-polythiophene composite for bilayer photovoltaics
A water-soluble acid oxidized multiwall carbon nanotube o-MWCNTs -polythiophene composite for bilayer photovoltaics is reported. Discrete heterojunction photovoltaic cells utilizing this nanocomposite material as the donor layer exhibit a 20% increase in fill factor and commensurate increase in power conversion efficiency as compared to cells without o-MWCNTs. Crucially o-MWCNTs are incorporate...

متن کاملInsights into the electrocatalysis of nitrobenzene using chemically-modified carbon nanotube electrodes
The electrochemical behavior of nitrobenzene and its derivatives at chemically-functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) modified electrodes was studied. Experimental results showed that hydroxyl-containing MWNTs exhibited the highest electrocatalytic activity among the used MWNTs because of its weak capacitive features and oxygen-containing functional groups. The cycle voltammetrys of...
