Filter-Free Image Sensor Pixels Comprising Silicon Nanowires with Selective Color Absorption
Hyunsung Park,Yaping Dan,Kwanyong Seo,Young J. Yu,Peter Duane,Munib Wober,Kenneth B. Crozier +6 more
TL;DR: This work fabricate pixels consisting of vertical silicon nanowires with integrated photodetectors, demonstrate that their spectral sensitivities are governed by nanowire radius, and perform color imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Versatile control of metal-assisted chemical etching for vertical silicon microwire arrays and their photovoltaic applications
Han-Don Um,Namwoo Kim,Kangmin Lee,Inchan Hwang,Ji Hoon Seo,Young J. Yu,Peter Duane,Munib Wober,Kwanyong Seo +8 more
TL;DR: By optimizing the MacEtch conditions, high-quality vertical Si microwires were successfully fabricated with lengths of up to 23.2 μm, which, when applied in a solar cell, achieved a conversion efficiency ofUp to 13.0%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Si Microwire Solar Cells: Improved Efficiency with a Conformal SiO2 Layer
TL;DR: The maximum overall efficiency of the champion device is improved from 8.71% to 10.6% by conformally coating the wires with a 200 nm thick SiO2 layer, and optical measurements reveal that the layer reduces reflection significantly over the entire visible range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microgrid Electrode for Si Microwire Solar Cells with a Fill Factor of Over 80
TL;DR: In this paper, a microgrid top electrode for highly efficient radial-junction Si microwire solar cells is proposed, which minimizes optical and electrical losses, thus ensuring proper function of the shallow (sheet resistance of ≈100 Ω sq−1) junction emitter.
Patent
Multispectral imaging using silicon nanowires
Hyunsung Park,Yaping Dan,Kwanyong Seo,Young J. Yu,Peter Duane,Munib Wober,Kenneth B. Crozier +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an optical filter consisting of an array of nanowires oriented perpendicular to a light incidence surface of the filter, where the optical filter transmits light at a first wavelength that is incident on the incidence surface, wherein the first wavelength is based on a cross-sectional shape of the nanwires.
