چکیده

A bulk heterojunction photocatalyst of interfacing CaFe(2)O(4) and MgFe(2)O(4) nanoparticles is highly active for oxidative degradation of isopropyl alcohol and hydrogen production from water under visible light, because the exciton easily reaches the interface and dissociates to minimize recombination.

Improvement of light harvesting by inserting an optical spacer (ZnO) in polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells: A theoretical and experimental study

By introducing a thin ZnO layer as an optical spacer, we have demonstrated that inserting this layer between an active layer and a reflective electrode results in a re-distribution of the optical electric field inside bulk heterojunction solar cells. A theoretical analysis by optical modeling showed that the thin ZnO layer could shift the position of the maximum of the electric field into the a...

3D porous ZnO-SnS p-n heterojunction for visible light driven photocatalysis.

A novel two-step solution approach is put forward to design a unique three dimensional (3D) porous ZnO-SnS p-n heterojunction under mild conditions. This special 3D structure is induced via flower-like ZnO in which SnS serves as an efficient photosensitizer to improve the light harvesting across the whole visible range. A profound investigation of the mechanism shows that this 3D porous ZnO-SnS...
