High-Responsivity Self-Powered Photoelectrochemical UV Photodetector Based on Integrated Self-Supporting SiC/ZnS Heterojunction Nanowire Arrays.

In the realm of photodetector (PD) technology, photoelectrochemical (PEC) PDs have garnered attention owing to their inherent advantages. Advances in this field depend on functional nanostructured materials, which are pivotal in improving the separation and transport of photogenerated electron-hole pairs to improve device efficiency. Herein, a highly photosensitive PEC UV PD is built using integrated self-supporting SiC/ZnS heterojunction nanowire array photoelectrodes through anodization and chemical deposition.

High-Sensitivity Photoelectrochemical Ultraviolet Photodetector with Stable pH-Universal Adaptability Based on Whole Single-Crystal Integrated Self-Supporting 4H-SiC Nanoarrays.

Emerging photoelectrochemical (PEC) photodetectors (PDs) have notable advantages over conventional PDs and have attracted extensive attention. However, harsh liquid environments, such as those with high corrosivity and attenuation, substantially restrict their widespread application. Moreover, most PEC PDs are constructed by assembling numerous nanostructures on current collector substrates, which inevitably contain abundant interfaces and defects, thus greatly weakening the properties of PDs.

MEASUREMENT AND SIMULATION OF THE RADIATION DOSES AROUND THE 'MINI LABYRINTH' EXPERIMENTAL WORKPLACE AT STU.

One of the most effective ways of gaining user experience and minimizing user effects on modelling and simulation is benchmarking. Currently (2022) a new experimental workplace, the so called 'Mini Labyrinth' is being developed at Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava (STU). It is a simple neutron and gamma shielding benchmark, inspired by the ALARM-CF-AIR-LAB-001 ICSBEP experiment.
