Journal ArticleDOI
Double Role of HMTA in ZnO Nanorods Grown by Chemical Bath Deposition
V. Strano,R. G. Urso,Mario Scuderi,Kingsley O. Iwu,Francesca Simone,Enrico Ciliberto,Corrado Spinella,Salvo Mirabella +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a double role of hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) in the growth mechanism of ZnO nanorods is investigated. But the authors focus on the negative effect of HMTA on the vertical arrangement of the nanorod.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tailoring morphology to control defect structures in ZnO electrodes for high-performance supercapacitor devices
Sumaiyah Najib,Feray Bakan,Nazrin Abdullayeva,Rahim Bahariqushchi,Sibel Kasap,Giorgia Franzò,Mehmet Sankir,Nurdan Demirci Sankir,Salvo Mirabella,Emre Erdem +9 more
TL;DR: Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures were synthesized in the form of nanoparticles, nanoflowers and nanourchins and all the samples revealed core defects; however, the defects on the surface are smeared out.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facile synthesis of Ni nanofoam for flexible and low-cost non-enzymatic glucose sensing
TL;DR: In this article, a novel Ni nanofoam electrode has been fabricated by low-cost methods and applied for non-enzymatic glucose sensing, which showed a glucose sensitivity of 2.37 mA/cm2 mM, a linear range of 0.01 − 0.7 mM and a limit of detection (LOD) of 5μM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Broadband photocurrent enhancement in a-Si:H solar cells with plasmonic back reflectors.
Seweryn Morawiec,Manuel J. Mendes,Sergej Filonovich,Tiago Mateus,Salvo Mirabella,Hugo Águas,Isabel M.P.L.V.O. Ferreira,Francesca Simone,Elvira Fortunato,Rodrigo Martins,Francesco Priolo,Isodiana Crupi +11 more
TL;DR: The enhancement in the opto-electronic performance of thin a-Si:H solar cells due to the light scattering effects of plasmonic back reflectors (PBRs), composed of self-assembled silver nanoparticles (NPs), incorporated on the cells' rear contact is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-efficiency silicon-compatible photodetectors based on Ge quantum dots
Salvatore Cosentino,Pei Liu,Son T. Le,Sunghwan Lee,David C. Paine,Alexander Zaslavsky,Domenico Pacifici,Salvo Mirabella,Maria Miritello,Isodiana Crupi,Antonio Terrasi +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, high responsivity, broadband metal/insulator/semiconductor photodetectors with amorphous Ge quantum dots (a-Ge QDs) as the active absorbers embedded in a silicon dioxide matrix are reported.
