Abstract:
In this PhD thesis, vertical arrays of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires (NWs) are synthesized in a CVD system and then deposited on patterned electrodes using dielectrophoresis (DEP). The nanowire devices illustrate 4 orders of magnitude increase in conductivity when exposed to ultra violet (UV) irradiation of 1220 μW/cm². The UV response has a fast component, due to electron-hole generation, as well as a slower component, attributed to the release of oxygen. Moreover, due to the increased electron density in the presence of UV, the type of oxygen species on the surface of ZnO changes to more reacti

Abstract:
Recently extensive efforts have been spent in order to achieve all silicon based photonic devices exploiting the efficient light emission from nanostructured silicon systems. In this thesis, silicon based nanostructures have been investigated for electro-optical and photovoltaic applications. The thesis focused on three application areas of silicon nanostructures: Light emitting diode (LED), light modulation using quantum confined Stark effect (QCSE) and photovoltaic applications. In the context of LED applications, ZnO nanocrystal/silicon heterojunctions were investigated. Contrary to observ

Au cours de cette thèse, j’ai étudié la possibilité et les avantages d’utiliser des contacts nanométriques au-dessous de 1 µm. Des simulations analytiques et numériques ont montré que ces contacts nanométriques sont avantageux pour les cellules en silicium cristallin comme ils peuvent entrainer une résistance ohmique négligeable. Mon travail expérimental était focalisé sur le développement de ces contacts en utilisant des nanoparticules de polystyrène comme un masque. En utilisant la technique de floating transfert pour déposer les nanosphères, une monocouche dense de nanoparticules s’est form

Abstract:
In 2012 the net world electricity generation was 21.56 trillion kilowatt hours. Photovoltaics only accounted for only 0.1 trillion kilowatt hours, less than 1 % of the total power. Recently there has been a push to convert more energy production to renewable sources. In recent years a great deal of interest has been shown for dye sensitized solar cells. These devices use inexpensive materials and have reported efficiencies approaching 12% in the lab. Here methods have been studied to improve upon these, and other, devices.

Abstract:
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is an n-type II-VI semiconductor with a reported band gap of 3.2-3.6 eV [1, 2, 3] and electrical resistivity of ~ 50 Ωcm [4]. Ideal for use in devices such as Photovoltaics (PVs), Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and detectors, ZnO has the advantage that it can be electrochemically deposited. This enables the quick and cheap controlled growth of ZnO nanostructures, which can potentially enhance performance in electronic applications over thin films. ZnO doping with a group III element e.g. Aluminium, can increase ZnO conduction by several orders of magnitude whilst having only a s
