Title: | Highly conductive nano-structures incorporated in semiconductor nanocomposites | Authors: | Leung, WWF Yang, LJ |
Issue Date: | 24-Mar-2015 | Source: | US Patent 8,987,706 B2. Washington, DC: US Patent and Trademark Office, 2015. | Abstract: | The presently claimed invention provides a highly conductive composite used for electric charge transport, and a method for fabricating said composite. The composite comprises a plurality of one-dimensional semiconductor nanocomposites and highly conductive nanostructures, and the highly conductive nanostructures are incorporated into each of the one-dimensional semiconductor nanocomposite. The composite is able to provide fast electric charge transport, and reduce the rate of electron-hole recombination, ultimately increasing the power conversion efficiency for use in solar cell; provide fast electrons transport, storage of electrons and large surface area for adsorption and reaction sites of active molecular species taking part in photocatalytic reaction; enhance the sensitivity of a surface for biological and chemical sensing purposes for use in biological and chemical sensors; and lower the impedance and increase the charge storage capacity of a lithium-ion battery. | Rights: | Assignee: The Hong Kong Polytechnic Univeristy. |
