Defects are detrimental for optoelectronics devices, such as stacking faults can form carrier‐transportation barriers, and foreign impurities (Au) with deep‐energy levels can form carrier traps and nonradiative recombination centers. Here, self‐catalyzed p‐type GaAs nanowires (NWs) with a pure zinc blende (ZB) structure are first developed, and then a photodetector made from these NWs is fabricated. Due to the absence of stacking faults and suppression of large amount of defects with deep energy levels, the photodetector exhibits room‐temperature high photoresponsivity of 1.45 × 105 A W?1 and excellent specific detectivity (D*) up to 1.48 × 1014 Jones for a low‐intensity light signal of wavelength 632.8 nm, which outperforms previously reported NW‐based photodetectors. These results demonstrate these self‐catalyzed pure‐ZB GaAs NWs to be promising candidates for optoelectronics applications. 相似文献

Exposed facets of n‐type silicon nanowires (Si NWs) fabricated by a top‐down approach are successfully terminated with different organic functionalities, including 1,3‐dioxan‐2‐ethyl, butyl, allyl, and propyl‐alcohol, using a two‐step chlorination/alkylation method. X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry establish the bonding and the coverage of these molecular layers. Field‐effect transistors fabricated from these Si NWs displayed characteristics that depended critically on the type of molecular termination. Without molecules the source–drain conduction is unable to be turned off by negative gate voltages as large as ?20 V. Upon adsorption of organic molecules there is an observed increase in the “on” current at large positive gate voltages and also a reduction, by several orders of magnitude, of the “off” current at large negative gate voltages. The zero‐gate voltage transconductance of molecule‐terminated Si NW correlates with the type of organic molecule. Adsorption of butyl and 1,3‐dioxan‐2‐ethyl molecules improves the channel conductance over that of the original SiO2? Si NW, while adsorption of molecules with propyl‐alcohol leads to a reduction. It is shown that a simple assumption based on the possible creation of surface states alongside the attachment of molecules may lead to a qualitative explanation of these electrical characteristics. The possibility and potential implications of modifying semiconductor devices by tuning the distribution of surface states via the functionality of attached molecules are discussed. 相似文献

Here a simple and an environmentally friendly approach is developed for the fabrication of Si–void@SiOx nanowires of a high‐capacity Li‐ion anode material. The outer surface of the robust SiOx backbone and the inside void structure in Si–void@SiOx nanowires appropriately suppress the volume expansion and lead to anisotropic swelling morphologies of Si nanowires during lithiation/delithiation, which is first demonstrated by the in situ lithiation process. Remarkably, the Si–void@SiOx nanowire electrode exhibits excellent overall lithium‐storage performance, including high specific capacity, high rate property, and excellent cycling stability. A reversible capacity of 1981 mAh g?1 is obtained in the fourth cycle, and the capacity is maintained at 2197 mAh g?1 after 200 cycles at a current density of 0.5 C. The outstanding overall properties of the Si–void@SiOx nanowire composite make it a promising anode material of lithium‐ion batteries for the power‐intensive energy storage applications. 相似文献

A route to achieving high yields of monodisperse, deeply deoxidized graphene oxide (GO) in solution is presented. It overcomes many of the problems of dispersibility and inefficient reduction of GO in solvothermal deoxidation that are usually observed, despite the previous use of strong reducing agents (e.g. Fe2+, S or hydrazine). It is shown that the incomplete deoxidation is most likely due to agglomeration/self‐assembly of partially reduced GO, which also creates poor dispersibility. GO deoxidation is found to be highly sensitive to the solvent surface energy and, through experiments and empirical calculations, tuning the solvent surface energy to around 85.6 mJ/m2 (at 100 °C) leads to fully deoxidized GO. These calculations also allow appropriate solvent surface energies to be calculated for other temperatures for deep deoxidation of GO. This approach makes solvothermal deoxidation of GO a potential route to large scale, economic production of highly disperse monolayered graphene. 相似文献

During the growth of InAs nanowires from Pd catalyst particles on InAs(111)A substrates, two distinct classes of nanowires are observed with smooth or zigzagged sidewalls. It is shown that this is related to a bimodal distribution of the wire‐tip diameter: above a critical diameter wires grow with smooth sidewalls, and below with zigzagged morphology. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the catalyst particles at the tip of zigzagged wires are smooth and have a higher aspect ratio than those at the tip of smooth wires. Zigzagged wires grow from liquid particles in the vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) mode whereas the smooth ones grow from solid particles in the vapor–solid–solid (VSS) mode. 相似文献

Efficient charge separation and transportation are key factors that determine the photoelectrochemical (PEC) water‐splitting efficiency. Here, a simultaneous enhancement of charge separation and hole transportation on the basis of ferroelectric polarization in TiO2–SrTiO3 core–shell nanowires (NWs) is reported. The SrTiO3 shell with controllable thicknesses generates a considerable spontaneous polarization, which effectively tunes the electrical band bending of TiO2. Combined with its intrinsically high charge mobility, the ferroelectric SrTiO3 thin shell significantly improves the charge‐separation efficiency (ηseparation) with minimized influence on the hole‐migration property of TiO2 photoelectrodes, leading to a drastically increased photocurrent density ( J ph). Specifically, the 10 nm‐thick SrTiO3 shell yields the highest J ph and ηseparation of 1.43 mA cm?2 and 87.7% at 1.23 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode, respectively, corresponding to 83% and 79% improvements compared with those of pristine TiO2 NWs. The PEC performance can be further manipulated by thermal treatment, and the control of SrTiO3 film thicknesses and electric poling directions. This work suggests a material with combined ferroelectric and semiconducting features could be a promising solution for advancing PEC systems by concurrently promoting the charge‐separation and hole‐transportation properties. 相似文献

Van der Waals (vdW) p–n heterojunctions consisting of various 2D layer compounds are fascinating new artificial materials that can possess novel physics and functionalities enabling the next‐generation of electronics and optoelectronics devices. Here, it is reported that the WSe2/WS2 p–n heterojunctions perform novel electrical transport properties such as distinct rectifying, ambipolar, and hysteresis characteristics. Intriguingly, the novel tunable polarity transition along a route of n‐“anti‐bipolar”–p‐ambipolar is observed in the WSe2/WS2 heterojunctions owing to the successive work of conducting channels of junctions, p‐WSe2 and n‐WS2 on the electrical transport of the whole systems. The type‐II band alignment obtained from first principle calculations and built‐in potential in this vdW heterojunction can also facilitate the efficient electron–hole separation, thus enabling the significant photovoltaic effect and a much enhanced self‐driven photoswitching response in this system. 相似文献

The surface energy and surface stability of Ag nanocrystals (NCs) are under debate because the measurable values of the surface energy are very inconsistent, and the indices of the observed thermally stable surfaces are apparently in conflict. To clarify this issue, a transmission electron microscope is used to investigate these problems in situ with elaborately designed carbon‐shell‐capsulated Ag NCs. It is demonstrated that the {111} surfaces are still thermally stable at elevated temperatures, and the victory of the formation of {110} surfaces over {111} surfaces on the Ag NCs during sublimation is due to the special crystal geometry. It is found that the Ag NCs behave as quasiliquids during sublimation, and the cubic NCs represent a featured shape evolution, which is codetermined by both the wetting equilibrium at the Ag–C interface and the relaxation of the system surface energy. Small Ag NCs (≈10 nm) no longer maintain the wetting equilibrium observed in larger Ag NCs, and the crystal orientations of ultrafine Ag NCs (≈6 nm) can rotate to achieve further shape relaxation. Using sublimation kinetics, the mean surface energy of Ag NCs at 1073 K is calculated to be 1.1–1.3 J m?2. 相似文献

In situ transmission electron microscopy reveals that an atomically thin crystalline phase at the surface of liquid Au–Si is stable over an unexpectedly wide range of conditions. By measuring the surface structure as a function of liquid temperature and composition, a simple thermodynamic model is developed to explain the stability of the ordered phase. The presence of surface ordering plays a key role in the pathway by which the Au–Si eutectic solidifies and also dramatically affects the catalytic properties of the liquid, explaining the anomalously slow growth kinetics of Si nanowires at low temperature. A strategy to control the presence of the surface phase is discussed, using it as a tool in designing strategies for nanostructure growth. 相似文献

Surface functionality is an essential component for processing and application of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). A simple and cost‐effective strategy for DNA‐mediated surface engineering of zirconium‐based nanoscale MOFs (NMOFs) is presented, capable of endowing them with specific molecular recognition properties and thus expanding their potential for applications in nanotechnology and biotechnology. It is shown that efficient immobilization of functional DNA on NMOFs can be achieved via surface coordination chemistry. With this strategy, it is demonstrated that such porphyrin‐based NMOFs can be modified with a DNA aptamer for targeting specific cancer cells. Furthermore, the DNA–NMOFs can facilitate the delivery of therapeutic DNA (e.g., CpG) into cells for efficient recognition of endosomal Toll‐like receptor 9 and subsequent enhanced immunostimulatory activity in vitro and in vivo. No apparent toxicity is observed with systemic delivery of the DNA–NMOFs in vivo. Overall, these results suggest that the strategy allows for surface functionalization of MOFs with different functional DNAs, extending the use of these materials to diverse applications in biosensor, bioimaging, and nanomedicine. 相似文献

In mixed III–V layers atomic species having different covalent tetrahedral radii are not distributed at random on their respective sublattices. Two types of deviation from randomness are observed: (i) phase separation, and (ii) atomic ordering. Phase separation is two-dimensional in nature, occurs on the surface while the layer is growing and is driven by surface thermodynamics. In contrast, atomic ordering is induced by subsurface stresses associated with (2×4) and (2×3) reconstructions of group V terminated (001) surfaces. These stresses bias the occupation of sites by atomic species differing in their tetrahedral radii and this feature leads to the evolution of double and triple period superlattices on (

Developing functional biomedical devices based on semiconductor materials requires an understanding of interactions taking place at the material‐biosystem interface. Cell behavior is dependent on the local physicochemical environment. While standard routes of material preparation involve chemical functionalization of the active surface, this review emphasizes both biocompatibility of unmodified surfaces as well as use of topographic features in manipulating cell‐material interactions. Initially, the review discusses experiments involving unmodified II–VI and III–V semiconductors – a starting point for assessing cytotoxicity and biocompatibility – followed by specific surface modification, including the generation of submicron roughness or the potential effect of quantum dot structures. Finally, the discussion turns to more recent work in coupling topography and specific chemistry, enhancing the tunability of the cell‐semiconductor interface. With this broadened materials approach, researchers' ability to tune the interactions between semiconductors and biological environments continues to improve, reaching new heights in device function. 相似文献

In recent years, the rapidly growing attention on MXenes makes the material a rising star in the 2D materials family. Although most researchers' interests are still focused on the properties of bare MXenes, little attention has been paid to the surface chemistry of MXenes and MXene‐based nanocomposites. To this end, this Review offers a comprehensive discussion on surface modified MXene‐based nanocomposites for energy conversion and storage (ECS) applications. Based on the structure and reaction mechanism, the related synthesis methods toward MXenes are briefly summarized. After the discussion of existing surface modification techniques, the surface modified MXene‐based nanocomposites and their inherent chemical principles are presented. Finally, the application of these surface modified nanocomposites for supercapacitors (SCs), lithium/sodium–ion batteries (LIBs/SIBs), and electrocatalytic water splitting is discussed. The challenges and prospects of MXene‐based nanocomposites for future ECS applications are also presented. 相似文献
