We present experimental results demonstrating multiple order Smith-Purcell radiation in high aspect ratio Silicon Nanowires structures using low-energy electrons (2.5–10keV). These produce emission spanning the visible, paving the way to a fully tunable ultraviolet source.
We demonstrate photodetectors for visible-to-infrared imaging, comprising vertical germanium nanowires on a silicon substrate, with a suspended graphene layer as the top electrical contact. Measured responsivity spectra show peaks that shift with increasing nanowire diameter.
We experimentally demonstrate that, by varying their diameter, the visible-to-infrared reflectance spectra of arrays of vertical Ge nanowires can be tuned. The results could enable future nanowire-based photodetectors with tailored responsivity spectra.
The growing research in the field of photovoltaics has led to various strategies for increasing the light interaction in absorbers, for instance the use of nanostructures like nanowires where leaky mode resonances enhanced absorption efficiency. Towards this goal, we present a study of the light absorption in single Si nanowires, by means of microphotocurrent spectroscopy combined with transport measurements...
The future use of nanostructures such as silicon nanowires in solar cells will only occur if their growth is selforganized, with high density, controlled dimensions and spacing. In this work we develop and study the first elaboration steps of high quality arrays of nanowires functionalized as solar cells using a radial junction. The core of the structure is made of a P-doped nanowire grown by Chemical...
