Nanowire Arrays: Constructing Well‐Ordered CdTe/TiO2 Core/Shell Nanowire Arrays for Solar Energy Conversion (Small 40/2016)
Source abstract
Abstract
On page 5538, Y. Lei and co-workers present photoelectrochemical applications of well-ordered CdTe/TiO2 heteronanostructure arrays prepared by template-directed approaches, demonstrating that modulating the diameter of CdTe/TiO2 heteronanostructure arrays improves the solar energy conversion efficiency. Compared to photoanodes with only TiO2 nanotube arrays, the CdTe/TiO2 heteronanostructure electrodes possess a dramatic performance optimization. Subsequent characterizations reveal that the CdTe core is responsible for utilizing photons, while the TiO2 shell is beneficial for core protection and promoting charge separation in the structures.
