Conformal and continuous deposition of bifunctional cobalt phosphide layers on ...
Thalluri, Sitaramanjaneva Mouli; Borme, Jerome; Yu, Kang; Xu, Junyuan; Amorim, Isilda; Gaspar, João; Qiao, Liang; Ferreira, Paulo; Alpuim, P.Vertically aligned p-silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays have been extensively investigated in recent years as promising photocathodes for solar-driven hydrogen evolution. However, the fabrication of SiNW photocathodes with both high photoelectrocatalytic activity and long-term operational stability using a simple and affordable approach is a challenging task. Herein, we report conformal and continuous deposition of...

Thalluri, Sitaramanjaneya Mouli; Borme, Jerome; Xiong, Dehua; Xu, Junyuan; Li, Wei; Amorim, Isilda; Alpuim, P.; Gaspar, Joao; Fonseca, HelderVertically-aligned, highly-ordered silicon nanowire (SiNW) array photocathodes are fabricated employing e-beam lithography followed by deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) of Si. The effect of structural parameters of SiNWs, including wire diameter, length and inter-wire spacing, on their photoelectrocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance has been systematically investigated. Within the range of dimensions under ...
