摘要
In this study, we investigate the effect of incorporation of Si nanowires (SiNWs) on the organic/inorganic hybrid nanocomposites based on poly [2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) and SiNWs. A huge potential for SiNWs for an amelioration of optical properties of investigated structures was shown, and particularly a more efficient charge transfer was guaranteed. The impact of SiNWs incorporation on photoluminescence properties of polymer:Si nanowires nanocomposites have been correlated with morphological characteristics. MEH-PPV:SiNWs (1:2) is the optimum composition where the device performance displays a J(sc) of 0.328 mu A/cm(2), a V-oc of 0.680 V and FF of 38%. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
