Boston College chemists have produced nanonets, a flexible webbing of self-assembling nanoscale titanium and silicon wires that multiplies surface area, critical to improving the performance of the wires in electronics and energy applications.
Test shows improved performance in the material’s ability to conduct electricity and ability to absorb light across a wide range of the solar spectrum.
