Bismuth (Bi) exhibits a high theoretical capacity, excellent electrical conductivity properties, and remarkable interlayer spacing, making it an ideal electrode material for supercapacitors. However, during the charge discharge processes, Bi is prone to volume expansion pulverization, resulting in decline capacitance. Deposition of nonmetal on its surface considered effective way modulate morphology electronic structure. Herein, we employed chemical vapor deposition technique fabricate...

Vertically well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays with three kinds of tip morphology—abruptly sharpened, tapered and plane—have been controllably fabricated wafer size uniformity by vapor phase transport condensation. Except that the morphology is distinctly different, all these nanorods are single crystalline, growing along their wurtzite ⟨0001⟩ axis, similar diameters, lengths densities. The field emission properties comparatively investigated found to be strongly affected morphology. A abruptly...

Abstract As an emerging earth‐abundant light harvesting material, antimony selenosulfide (Sb 2 (S,Se) 3 ) has received tremendous attention for photovoltaics. Manipulating the carrier separation and recombination processes is critical to achieve high device efficiency. Compared conventional planar heterojunction (PHJ), bulk (BHJ) configuration affords great potential enable efficient charge extraction. In this work, BHJ Sb solar cells are constructed based on CdS nanorod arrays (NRAs)....

Flexible and durable electrode materials are of vital importance to developing advanced energy storage devices for emerging wearable electronics. Most current strategies adopt chemical modifications or binders improve the interface interaction between flexible components, which inevitably lowers cyclic lifetime increases production cost.

The atomic thickness and flatness allow properties of 2D semiconductors to be modulated with influence from the substrate. Reversible modulation these requires an “active,” reconfigurable substrate, i.e., a substrate switchable functionalities that interacts strongly overlayer.
