• Enhanced absorption and carrier collection in Si wire arrays for photovoltaic applications. (2010, background): “A particular concern for photovoltaic applications of VLS-grown wire arrays is the possibility of parasitic absorption, which could be caused by the presence of surface states, impurities or residual VLS catalyst metal deposit”
• Nanowires With Promise for Photovoltaics (2011, methodology): “This has been observed for silicon NWs fabricated on glass substrates by wet etching and chemical vapor deposition [24] and also by silicon NWs fabricated by seeded growth [25].”
