Thermal coarsening of individual titanate nanowires and their assemblies: Surface vs. bulk diffusion

László Forró, Luca Rossi, Endre Horvath, Sergiy Katrych, Massimo Spina, Laurent Syavoch Bernard, Xavier Berdat

The thermal coarsening of titanate nanowires was investigated from room temperature to 1000 degrees C by AFM, SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. Phase transformation kinetics and the external morphology were studied in two configurations: i) as individual an ...

Tuning ferromagnetism at room temperature by visible light

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Xavier François Mettan, Bálint Náfrádi, Andrea Pisoni, Massimo Spina, Péter Szirmai

Most digital information today is encoded in the magnetization of ferromagnetic domains. The demand for ever-increasing storage space fuels continuous research for energy-efficient manipulation of magnetism at smaller and smaller length scales. Writing a b ...

Photodiode Response in a CH3NH3PbI3/CH3NH3SnI3 Heterojunction

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Bálint Náfrádi, Andrea Pisoni, Massimo Spina, Karoly Holczer

Here we report another surprising feature of the methylammonium metal halide material family, the phototunability of the diode response of a heterojunction made of CH3NH3PbI3 and its close relative, CH3NH3SnI3. In the dark state the device behaves as a dio ...

Cyan titania nanowires: Spectroscopic study of the origin of the self-doping enhanced photocatalytic activity

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Endre Horvath, Alla Arakcheeva, Richard Gaal, Bálint Náfrádi, Massimo Spina, Jacim Jacimovic, Péter Szirmai, Laurent Syavoch Bernard, Xavier Berdat

We report a detailed spectroscopic study of Ti3+ self-doped TiO2 nanowires prepared by high temperature annealing of the protonated titanate nanowires (TiONW) in hydrogen atmosphere. Hydrogenation causes a color change from white to cyan and a major increa ...

Mechanical signatures of degradation of the photovoltaic perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 upon water vapor exposure

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Wanda Andreoni, Bálint Náfrádi, Massimo Spina, Ayat Karimi

We report on the mechanical properties of CH3NH3PbI3 photovoltaic perovskite measured by nanoindentation. The Young's modulus (E) of the pristine sample is 20.0 +/- 1.5GPa, while the hardness (H) is 1.0 +/- 0.1GPa. Upon extended exposure to water vapor, bo ...

Nanowires of organic-inorganic perovskites

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Massimo Spina

An organic-inorganic perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 nanowire showing a length-width aspect ratio from 5-400 up to 109 and a width-height ratio of 1-100 up to 1-10000. Further, the invention is embodied as a process for making the nanowire wherein at least a polar a ...

CH3NH3PbI3: precise structural consequences of water absorption at ambient conditions

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Alla Arakcheeva, Massimo Spina

The crystal structure of the pristine (I) and aged (II) crystals of CH3NH3PbI3 (hereafter MAPbI(3)) hybrid organic-inorganic lead iodide has been studied at 293 K with high-precision single-crystal X-ray diffraction using a synchrotron light source. We sho ...

Ultrasensitive 1D field-effect phototransistors: CH3NH3PbI3 nanowire sensitized individual carbon nanotubes

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Richard Gaal, Bálint Náfrádi, Massimo Spina, Eric Joseph Bonvin

Field-effect phototransistors were fabricated based on individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) sensitized by CH3NH3PbI3 nanowires (MAPbI(3)NWs). These devices represent light responsivities of R = 7.7 x 10(5) A W-1 under low-lighting conditions in the nW mm(-2) ...

Controlled growth of CH3NH3PbI3 nanowires in arrays of open nanofluidic channels

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Bálint Náfrádi, Massimo Spina, Eric Joseph Bonvin

Spatial positioning of nanocrystal building blocks on a solid surface is a prerequisite for assembling individual nanoparticles into functional devices. Here, we report on the graphoepitaxial liquid-solid growth of nanowires of the photovoltaic compound CH ...

Health hazards of methylammonium lead iodide based perovskites: cytotoxicity studies

László Forró, Hilal Lashuel, Endre Horvath, Anne-Laure Mahul Mellier, Massimo Spina, Bohumil Maco, Ryma Iness Benmessaoud

New technologies launch novel materials; besides their performances in products, their health hazards must be tested. This applies to the lead halide perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 as well, which offers fulgurate applications in photovoltaic devices. We report the ...
