Abstract One-dimensional (1D) ZnO nanostructures have widely been studied over the last
decade, not only because of their rich morphologies produced by various methods, but also …

In the field of photovoltaic energy conversion, hybrid inorganic/organic devices represent
promising alternatives to standard photovoltaic systems in terms of exploiting the specific …

Functionalization of zinc oxide (ZnO) nano-objects by silane grafting is an attractive method
to provide nanostructured materials with a variety of surface properties. Active hydroxyl …

With the rapid development of organic electronics, one-dimensional (1D) organic p–n
heterojunctions have attracted increasing interest because of their unique optoelectronic …

Organosilane grafting on the surface of ZnO nanoparticles is a possible means of fabricating
hybrid nanomaterials with tuned optical and physico-chemical properties. We report here the …

Single-crystalline uniform Ta2O5 nanowires are prepared by a novel synthetic route. The
formation of the nanowires involves an oriented attachment process caused by the reduction …

ZnO is widely used as an n-type semiconductor in various solar cell structures; including
dyesensitized, organic, hybrid and solid-state solar cells. Here, we review advances in ZnO …

ZnO nanoparticles are widely used as electron acceptors in hybrid polymer blend solar cells
as well as electron extraction materials in organic solar cells. Here, a study of the …

Spectroscopic ellipsometry has been used to extract the optical indices of blend organic
donor: ZnO (1: 2) thin films. Four different donor molecules are investigated in this study …

(Figure 1d). This is remarkable considering the fact that both PTEBS and P3KHT do not
exhibit observable crystallinity in the bulk, but it is consistent with observations of ordering of …
