Hybrid GaAs-Nanowire–Carbon-Nanotube Flexible Photovoltaics
Abstract
A simple method is described for the preparation of carbon nanotube (CNT) composite films containing Au nanoparticles, which act as adatom collection agents promoting the growth of core–shell p-n junction GaAs nanowires (NW), according to the vapor–liquid–solid mechanism. This approach for composite film formation requires no covalent modification of the CNTs. GaAs NWs obtained are randomly aligned with respect to the CNT substrate in a densely …
