Low-Temperature Electron Transport in [110] and [100] Silicon Nanowires: A DFT - Monte Carlo study
Daryoush Shiri, Reza Nekovei, Amit Verma
The effects of very low temperature on the electron transport in a [110] and [100] axially aligned unstrained silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are investigated. A combination of semi-empi…
Gunn Effect in Silicon Nanowires: Charge Transport under High Electric Field
Daryoush Shiri, Amit Verma, Reza Nekovei +3
Gunn (or Gunn-Hilsum) Effect and its associated negative differential resistivity (NDR) emanates from transfer of electrons between two different energy bands in a semiconductor. I…
Zero-bias photocurrents in highly-disordered networks of Ge and Si nanowires
M. Golam Rabbani, Sunil R. Patil, Amit Verma +6
Semiconducting nanowire (NW) devices have garnered attention in self-powered electronic and optoelectronic applications. This work explores and exhibits, for the first time for vis…
Simulation Study of Schottky Contact Based Single Si Wire Solar Cell
M. Golam Rabbani, Amit Verma, Reza Nekovei +2
We simulate single silicon nanowire (SiNW) solar cells with dissimilar work function metal contacts. Both short circuit current (ISC) and open circuit voltage (VOC) have been inves…
Modeling of dual-metal Schottky contacts based silicon micro and nano wire solar cells
M. Golam Rabbani, Amit Verma, Michael M. Adachi +4
We study solar cell properties of single silicon wires connected at their ends to two dissimilar metals of different work functions. Effects of wire dimensions, the work functions…
