Noble metal dichalcogenides (NMDs) are two-dimensional (2D) layered materials that
exhibit outstanding thickness-dependent tunable-bandgaps that can be suitable for various …

We report on the electron beam induced current (EBIC) microscopy and
cathodoluminescence (CL) characterization correlated with compositional analysis of light …

Here, van der Waals multi‐heterojunctions (PN, NP, PIN, and NPN) are fabricated by
stacking of MoTe2, hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN), and MoSe2 nanoflakes using a …

The fovea centralis is a closely-packed vertical array of inverted-cone photoreceptor cells
located in the retina that is responsible for high acuity binocular vision. The cones are …

Minimization of reflection losses is extremely important for efficient silicon solar cells made
either on mono crystalline (c-) or multi-crystalline (mc-) silicon (Si) substrates. A simple and …

Nanowire based solar cells hold promise for terrestrial and space photovoltaic applications.
However, to speed-up and further continue with nanowire solar cell development, quick and …

Recently, a lot of attention is being paid to combine silicon nanowires (SiNWs) and the
conventional micro-pyramid silicon (µT-Si) structures leading to SiNWs/µT-Si binary …

Organic/inorganic heterojunctions provide a viable option to replace the conventional high-
temperature dopant diffusion-based p–n junction owing to their low manufacturing cost …

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) attached to a wafer substrate are converted to inversely tapered
silicon nanocones (SiNCs). After excitation with visible light, individual SiNCs show a 200 …

Silicon light funnels are three-dimensional subwavelength structures in the shape of
inverted cones with respect to the incoming illumination. Light funnel (LF) arrays can serve …
