Novel buckypaper device converts light into electricity
Researchers in China have discovered that SWCNT buckypapers have a large Seebeck coefficient, indicating a strong capability to convert heat into electricity. Based on this, they have designed an opto-electronic power source which converts the incident light into electricity. While this has been discussed as a theoretical mechanism, the team at Tsinghua University in Beijing has actually fabricated an integrated device that outputs a macroscopic voltage, moving forward towards practical applications. Compared with conventional semiconductor process, such buckypaper-based photoelectric conversion devices could be conveniently fabricated on a large scale and at low cost, and they also could be tailored at ease. Additionally, the excellent flexibility of the buckypapers favours the flexible fabrication of these devices, especially when specific structures are desired. The team fabricated as-prepared SWCNT sheets (p-type) and PEI-coated SWCNT sheets (n-type) from CVD-grown arrays of SWCNTs of around 2nm diameter and 0.36mm length. They then suspended small strips of the buckypapers, exposed them to NIR light with a wavelength of 980nm and recorded the output voltage. Application areas for these buckypaper opto-electronic power sources could be in harvesting solar energy or as infrared detectors since the sensitivity can be amplified by integrating the elements.
