Abstract

We report on a novel approach to synthesize hybrid nanostructures of meso porous silicon and conjugated organic polymers that are suitable for solar cell applications. Meso-porous silicon substrates with relatively large pores (∼100 nm) have been exploited for electrochemical polymerization of organic monomers, which were introduced into the porous silicon matrices and electro-polymerized to create poly-vinyl-carbazole (PVK). We present electrical characteristics of a device having relatively thin films of the hybrid medium, which exhibits a photovoltaic mode of operation.
