Abstract:
Nanostructures have been widely used in solar cells due to their extraordinary photon management properties. However, due to poor pn junction quality and high surface recombination velocity, typical nanostructured solar cells are not efficient compared with the traditional commercial solar cells. Here, we demonstrate a new approach to design, simulate, and fabricate whole-wafer nanostructures on dielectric layer on thin c-Si for solar cell light trapping. The optical simulation results show that the periodic nanostructure arrays on dielectric materials could suppress the reflection loss over a

Reflectance of the conical frustum nanostructured solar cells is significantly reduced in a wide range of wavelengths compared to that of the planar sample.

Abstract:
Broadband antireflection (AR) coatings are essential elements for improving the photocurrent generation of photovoltaic modules or the enhancement of visibility in optical devices. In this paper, we report a hybrid nanostructured antireflection coating combination that is a clean and efficient method for fabricating a nanostructured antireflection coating (ARC). A multilayer thin-film was introduced between the ARC and substrate to solve the significant problem of preparing nanostructured ARCs on different substrates. In this way, we rebuilt a gradient refractive index structure and optimize t

Abstract:
The investigation was carried out to study the effect of a novel process of surface modification, surface nanocrystallization by high energy shot peening (HESP), on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. A disc of pure titanium was processed to HESP in a commercial shot peening equipment, to create nanostructure at the surface. The surface microstructure was characterized by SEM and osteoblasts were co-cultured with the surface nanostructured titanium and unreceived titanium surface to evaluate their biocompatibility.

Commercially available, gas-atomized NiCrAlY powder was milled in Ar atmosphere to prepare nanostructured powder. The NiCrAlY coatings in the conventional microstructure and the nanostructure were subsequently deposited by cold spraying using the as-atomized powder and milled powder. The influence of the powder structure on the microstructure of cold-sprayed coating was investigated. It was found that dense NiCrAlY coatings can be cold-sprayed using two powders. Isothermal oxidation was performed at 1000°C in air for up to 500 hours. The results showed that the growth rate of the oxide on the

After formation of nanostructured surface layer, the structure was characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. According to the microhardness measurements, the depth of nanostructured layer, with the grains of 50-110 nm, was about 40-50 μ

In our study, we demonstrated the performance of antimicrobial coatings on properly functionalized and nanostructured 316L food-grade stainless steel pipelines. For the fabrication of these functional coatings, we employed facile and low-cost electrochemical techniques and surface modification processes. The development of a nanoporous structure on the 316L stainless steel surface was performed by following an electropolishing process in an electrolytic bath, at a constant anodic voltage of 40 V for 10 min, while the temperature was maintained between 0 and 10 °C.

Abstract:
We designed and realized highly fluorescent nanostructures composed of Eu3+ complexes under a protein coating. The nanostructured material, confirmed by photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM), includes a bottom fluorescent layer and an upper protein layer. The bottom fluorescent layer includes Eu3+ that is coordinated by 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) and oleic acid (O). The complete complexes (OEu3+Phen) formed higher-order structures with diameter 40–150 nm. Distinctive nanoscale striations reminiscent of fingerprints were observed with a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM).

It was found that a nanostructured surface layer sample developed a compound layer twice as thick as that in a coarse-grained sample under the same plasma nitriding conditions (530 oC for 6 h).
