Modulated CeO2/ZnO nanoarrays with different structures for enhanced electrochemical performances

Self-Cleaning Transparent Photovoltaic p–n Junction Based on CuAlO2/Tm/Bi2O3/ZnO Nanoarrays

“…Roy et al applied the thermal resonant method to study Young’s modulus of ZnO nanowires; their results are consistent with those of a previously reported model . He et al fabricated CeO 2 /ZnO nanoarrays for enhancing electrochemical performance and stability . Moreover, orderly nanoarrays prepared using a hydrothermal method obtain decent hydrophilicity, which can improve the pollution diffusion to increase self-cleaning.…”

“…Synergism among an appropriate Fermi level, high QY, and upconversion fluorescence of multifunctional Tm/Bi 2 O 3 nanoparticles, along with holes induced by Cu vacancies and the carrier, results in decent kinetic equilibrium to achieve a high photovoltaic response . Thus, upon modification with the multifunctional Tm/Bi 2 O 3 nanoparticles, CuAlO 2 /Tm/Bi 2 O 3 /ZnO achieves a good balance between PCE and transparency while achieving decent self-cleaning performance. ,, Moreover, ZnO orderly nanoarrays with higher Young modulus can provide good structural stability, and surface hydrophilicity can provide better solid/liquid contact and pollution photodegradation − to achieve decent stability and self-cleaning.…”
