Semiconductor Nanomaterials for Flexible Technology (from light battery and electronics to sensors and energy storage) (hardcover) / Nano scientific progress series (Chinese Edition)

The book, edited by Yugang Sun, introduces the principle of semiconductor nanomaterials for flexible technology, its manufacturing technology and devices that are made from it and their applications. It summarizes the exploration results of flexible mechanical system with both mechanical flexibility and superior performance,which is built of nanoscale single crystal semiconductor component. It first introduces the preparation of organic semiconductor crystallites and single crystal nanowires, and the flexible thin-film transistors constituted by them, as well as the inorganic nanowires, nanobelts and nano film which are made through the bottom-up chemical synthesis and the top-down printing manufacturing, and the flexible electronic devices and circuit constructed by them. It then introduces the carbon nanotubes,which are used for high performance thin film transistors and field emission devices as smart materials. It makes a summary of the flexible photoelectric chemical pool which converts solar energy into electricity,the flexible solar cell module which is based on the monocrystalline silicon micro cell array,the devices to convert mechanical energy (vibrations, motion, etc.) to electrical energy which are based on the piezoelectric characteristics of oxide-based zinc nanowires and so on. Secondly, it introduces some energy storage devices with mechanical flexibility,and the flexible chemical sensors which obtain high sensitive with the high specific surface area and chemical reactivity that are inherent in nanometer materials. Finally, it summarizes the mechanical structure of the nanobelt with controllable corrugated on rubber substrate.
