Simulation study of Schottky contact based single Si wire solar cell
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We model single silicon nanowire (SiNW) solar cells with dissimilar work function metal contacts. Both short circuit current (ISC) and open circuit voltage (VOC) have been investigated. Effects of nanowire dimension, ...
A scrutiny of antibacterial activity of pure and iodine doped ZnO thin films synthesized by mSILAR method
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Iodine doped zinc oxide (I-ZnO) thin films were synthesized by microwave assisted successive ionic layer adsorption (mSILAR) method. The structural characteristics of pure ZnO and I-ZnO thin films were carried out by powder ...
