Constructing Multifunctional Virus-Templated Nanoporous Composites for Thin Film Solar Cells: Contributions of Morphology and Optics to Photocurrent Generation

Biotemplates, such as the high aspect ratio M13 bacteriophage, can be used to nucleate noble metal nanoparticles and photoactive materials such as metal oxides, as well as organize them into continuous structures. Such attributes make them attractive scaffolds for solar applications requiring precis...
