چکیده
The paper deals with the fabrication of a p-CuS-n-Si nanocone heterojunction based highly sensitive broad band photodetector. Cone-like one dimensional Si nanostructures formed by metal assisted chemical etching, with superior antireflection characteristics have been used as templates for fabrication of the heterojunction. Covellite CuS material was synthesized by a simple chemical reaction for used as target material for the fabrication of p-CuS-n-Si nanocone heterojunctions via pulsed laser ablation. The effect of surface texturing of Si (cone like nanostructure vs. planar) on spectral photoresponse and detection is reported.

متن کاملMie resonance-mediated antireflection effects of Si nanocone arrays fabricated on 8-in. wafers using a nanoimprint technique
UNLABELLED We fabricated 8-in. Si nanocone (NC) arrays using a nanoimprint technique and investigated their optical characteristics. The NC arrays exhibited remarkable antireflection effects; the optical reflectance was less than 10% in the visible wavelength range. The photoluminescence intensity of the NC arrays was an order of magnitude larger than that of a planar wafer. Optical simulations...

متن کاملTransparent conductor-embedding nanocones for selective emitters: optical and electrical improvements of Si solar cells
Periodical nanocone-arrays were employed in an emitter region for high efficient Si solar cells. Conventional wet-etching process was performed to form the nanocone-arrays for a large area, which spontaneously provides the graded doping features for a selective emitter. This enables to lower the electrical contact resistance and enhances the carrier collection due to the high electric field dis...
