Silicon Nanowire Photocathodes for Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Production
The performance of silicon for water oxidation and hydrogen production can be improved by exploiting the antireflective properties of nanostructured silicon substrates. In this work, silicon nanowires were fabricated by metal-assisted electroless etching of silicon. An enhanced photocurrent density of -17 mA/cm² was observed for the silicon nanowires coated with an iron sulphur carbonyl catalys...
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 کاملChlorination of hydrogen-terminated silicon „111... surfaces
Infrared absorption spectroscopy was used to investigate the chlorination of hydrogen-terminated Si 111 surfaces by three different methods: a exposure to a saturated solution of phosphorus pentachloride PCl5 in chlorobenzene; b exposure to chlorine gas, Cl2 g , and c exposure to Cl2 g under UV illumination. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and first principles model clusters calculations were ...
متن کاملSilicon Nanowire FET Hydrogen gas Sensor: Design Aspects
Palladium (Pd) is considered as ideal hydrogen sensing material due to its properties as high sensitivity and selectivity to hydrogen gas, fast response and reversible room temperature operation.Silicon nanowire (SiNW) functionalized with Pd based hydrogen gas nanowire sensor having quantum confinement effect and high sensitivity because of high surface to volume ratio of SiNW. This paper highl...
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...
