Nanowire-based all-oxide solar cells.
We present an all-oxide solar cell fabricated from vertically oriented zinc oxide nanowires and cuprous oxide nanoparticles. Our solar cell consists of vertically oriented n-type zinc oxide nanowires, surrounded by a film constructed from p-type cuprous oxide nanoparticles. Our solution-based synthesis of inexpensive and environmentally benign oxide materials in a solar cell would allow for the...
متن کاملRecent development of carbon nanotubes materials as counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells
Dye-sensitized solar cells present promising low-cost alternatives to the conventional Silicon (Si)-based solar cells. The counter electrode generally consists of Pt deposited onto FTO plate. Since Pt is rare and expensive metal, nanostructured carbonaceous materials have been widely investigated as a promising alternative to replace it. Carbon nanotubes have shown significant properties such...
متن کاملSemiconductor Materials for Solar Cells
In most of today solar cells the absorption of photons, which results in the generation of the charge carriers, and the subsequent separation of the photo-generated charge carriers take place in semiconductor materials. Therefore, the semiconductor layers are the most important parts of a solar cell; they form the hart of the solar cell. There are a number of different semiconductor materials t...
متن کاملEpitaxially aligned cuprous oxide nanowires for all-oxide, single-wire solar cells.
As a p-type semiconducting oxide that can absorb visible light, cuprous oxide (Cu2O) is an attractive material for solar energy conversion. This work introduces a high-temperature, vapor-phase synthesis that produces faceted Cu2O nanowires that grow epitaxially along the surface of a lattice-matched, single-crystal MgO substrate. Individual wires were then fabricated into single-wire, all-oxide...
متن کاملSynthetic Focusing Aperture Techniques for Non-destructive Testing of Materials
Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique imaging has became a popular tool in the field of non-destructive testing in the past years. The acquisition procedure consists in collecting the data after activating elements one by one. The reconstructed object is then computed by adding the contribution of each channel, selecting the proper time delay values. It is the principle of the well-known delay ...
