Chemical nanofabrication: a general route to surface-patterned and free-standing transition metal chalcogenide nanostructures{
Transition metal chalcogenide (TMC) materials are important in a range of applications from solar cells to low friction surfaces to battery electrode materials. The ability to generate nanoscale structures of TMC materials offers new opportunities to optimize and improve their properties and to extend their usefulness. For example, fullerene-like TMCs (e.g. WS2, MoS2 and TiS2) intercalated with...
متن کاملNanowires fine tunable fabrication by varying the concentration ratios, the etchant and the plating spices in metal-assisted chemical etching of silicon wafer.
The metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) was used to synthesis silicon nanowires. The effect of etchant concentration, etching and chemical plating time and doping density on silicon nanowires length were investigated. It is held that the increasing of HF and H2O2 concentrations lead to etching rate increment and formation of wire-like structure. The results show that, the appropriate ratio o...

DOI: 10.1002/adsu.201700142 chemical fuels became an alternative path for the search of clean energy sources.[1] Therefore, a diverse class of semiconductor photoelectrodes and nonprecious catalytic materials has been investigated for solar water splitting.[2–5] Only a few semiconductor photocathodes and noble metal-free catalysts showed encouraging solar water splitting performances for hydrog...
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 کاملGold catalytic Growth of Germanium Nanowires by chemical vapour deposition method
Germanium nanowires (GeNWs) were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) based on vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) mechanism with Au nanoparticles as catalyst and germanium tetrachloride (GeCl4) as a precursor of germanium. Au catalysts were deposited on silicon wafer as a thin film, firstly by sputtering technique and secondly by submerging the silicon substrates in Au colloidal s...
