Transport behaviors of photo-carriers across the aligned carbon nanotubes and silicon interface.

چکیده
Transport of photo-carriers across the aligned carbon nanotubes and silicon (CNT/Si) interface determines cell performance. It is revealed that S-shaped current-voltage characters are generated due to the mismatch between the generation and transportation of photo-carriers, which can be eliminated by tuning the light intensity and CNT coverage on the Si surface, with the power conversion efficiency enhanced up to 121%.

Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes Produced by APCVD using Camphor
A simple chemical vapor deposition technique at atmospheric pressure (APCVD) is adopted to synthesize the aligned arrays of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (AMWCNTs) without using any carrier gas, at 230◦C, 750◦C and 850 ◦C. Camphor (C10H16O) is used as carbon source because this botanical hydrocarbon is chip and abundant which convert the CVD technique to a green method for produc...
متن کاملA molecular dynamics simulation of water transport through C and SiC nanotubes: Application for desalination
In this work the conduction of ion-water solution through two discrete bundles of armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes, as useful membranes for water desalination, is studied. In order that studies on different types of nanotubes be comparable, the chiral vectors of C and Si-C nanotubes are selected as (7,7) and (5,5), respectively, so that a similar volume of fluid is investigated ...

متن کاملElectro-Optical Properties of Carbon Nanotubes Obtained by High Density Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition
In this work, we studied the electro-optical properties of high-aligned carbon nanotubes deposited at room temperature. For this, we used the High Density Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition system. This system uses a new concept of plasma generation: a planar coil is coupled to an RF system for plasma generation. This was used together with an electrostatic shield, for plasma densification, there...
