Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclic voltammetry of semiconductor photoelectrodes III: A comparison of experiment and theory for n-Si and p-Si electrodes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a model circuit in which electrode nonideality, double-layer capacitance, and parallel resistance effects were accounted for quantitatively, yielding a reliable description of the shapes of the voltammograms as well as the voltage dropped across the diode element as a function of the total potential drop across the circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ nanomechanical measurements of interfacial strength in membrane-embedded chemically functionalized si microwires for flexible solar cells

TL;DR: In situ uniaxial tensile tests of individual, chemically functionalized, Si microwires embedded in a compliant PDMS matrix reveal that chemical functionality on Si microwire surfaces is directly correlated with interfacial adhesion strength.
Journal ArticleDOI

Composites of carboxylate-capped TiO2 nanoparticles and carbon black as chemiresistive vapor sensors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize a 1-5 nm diameter nanoparticles with a sol-gel method, functionalized with carboxylate ligands, and combined with carbon black (CB) to produce chemiresistive chemical vapor sensor films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macroscale and Nanoscale Photoelectrochemical Behavior of p-Type Si(111) Covered by a Single Layer of Graphene or Hexagonal Boron Nitride

TL;DR: SECCM is shown to be an effective method to interrogate the nanoscale photoelectrochemical behavior of an interface, showing little spatial variance over scales exceeding the grain size of the CVD-grown 2D materials in this work.
Book ChapterDOI

CHAPTER 3:Structured Materials for Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting

TL;DR: In this paper, the relevant parameters of semiconductor/catalyst photoelectrochemical systems including light absorption, charge separation, photovoltage, mass transport, and catalytic turnover are introduced.
