Abstract:Nanostructured Si exhibits superior photothermal performance and is a cost‐effective solar absorbing material for solar evaporation, photothermal catalysis, and solar power systems. Defects are effective nonradiative recombination centers and are suppressed in amorphous silicon (a‐Si) to benefit radiative recombination. In this research, a bottom‐up approach to optimize the disordered and defective structure of non‐hydrogenated a‐Si by magnetron sputtering for photothermal conversion is proposed. The 2D mesopo… Show more
