Development of additive-assisted Ag-MACE for multicrystalline black Si solar cells
The uniform distribution of silver nanoparticles on the surfaces of diamond-wire sawn multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) is critical for the texturing of mc-Si by the Ag metal-assisted chemical etching method (Ag-MACE).

Patterned Nanomagnetic Films [PDF]
Nano-fabrication technologies for realising patterned structures from thin films are reviewed. A classification is made to divide the patterning technologies in two groups namely with and without the use of masks. The more traditional methods as well as

Progress in Nanoporous Templates: Beyond Anodic Aluminum Oxide and Towards Functional Complex Materials [PDF]
Successful synthesis of ordered porous, multi-component complex materials requires a series of coordinated processes, typically including fabrication of a master template, deposition of materials within the pores to form a negative structure, and a third

Porous Silicon Formation by Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching
The method of metal-assisted chemical etching produces a porous silicon layer. Palladium particles are deposited on both: multi-crystalline and Czochralski grown mono-crystalline Si wafers by immersing them in PdCl2 solution for 1 to 3 min. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of Pd clusters shows a decrease in Pd metal fraction by prolonged ...

Gold surface with gold nitride–a surface enhanced Raman scattering active substrate [PDF]
The nitration of gold surfaces is a nonpolluting method, which can lead to large scale production of substrates with remarkable properties and applications. We present a topographical study of the nanoscale structure of the gold nitride surfaces produced
