Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Hydrothermal growth optimization of vertically aligned ZnO nanowire arrays and their dye-sensitized solar cell performance under air/oxygen environments

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2021
In this work, the hydrothermal growth parameters of vertically aligned ZnO nanowire arrays on FTO substrates were optimized for best surface coverage and minimal stacking and entanglement between nanowires for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) application.

Growth Mechanism Studies of ZnO Nanowires: Experimental Observations and Short-Circuit Diffusion Analysis

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2017
Plenty of studies have been performed to probe the diverse properties of ZnO nanowires, but only a few have focused on the physical properties of a single nanowire since analyzing the growth mechanism along a single nanowire is difficult.

Rethinking Charge Transport and Recombination in Donor‐Diluted Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Organic solar cells with 1–45% PM6 content in Y12 were studied to link structure and charge dynamics to performance. The conductivity follows a 3D percolation model without a sharp threshold. Donor dilution preserves the photogeneration yield, but limits the fill factor due to transport resistance losses.

Polarity-dependent nonlinear optics of nanowires under electric field

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Finding dipole orientation of nanostructures is a challenge. Here the authors report a method to determine the sign of the polarity of a single nanowire using electric-field-modulated second-harmonic generation from surface-guided ZnO nanowire.
