“…Furthermore, conical structures are promising materials in cancer diagnosis [122]. Moreover, literature reviews showed the possible application of conically shaped materials in solar cells [123][124][125][126]. F. Sobhani et al used conical metallic nanoparticles in simulations of silicon solar cells [127].…”

The development in the field of nanomaterials has resulted in the synthesis of various structures. Depending on their final applications, the desired composition and therefore alternate properties can be achieved. In electrochemistry, the fabrication of bulk films characterized by high catalytic performance is well-studied in the literature. However, decreasing the scale of materials to the nanoscale significantly increases the active surface area, which is crucial in electrocatalysis. In this work, a special focus is placed on the electrodeposition of nanocones and their application as catalysts in hydrogen evolution reactions. The main paths for their synthesis concern deposition into the templates and from electrolytes containing an addition of crystal modifier that are directly deposited on the substrate. Additionally, the fabrication of cones using other methods and their applications are briefly reviewed.

“… – 13 Unfortunately, the anti-reflection layer performance degrades as we go away from the desired wavelength and angle of incidence. Several attempts have been made to overcome this problem of performance degradation through the use of nanowires (NWs), 14 – 18 nanocones (NCs), 19 – 21 and nanostars 22 . In addition, these attempts can extraordinarily reduce the solar absorber (SA) thickness and decrease the cost of the manufacturing process.…”

In this work, Al x Ga 1−x As nanostructures on a planar Si substrate are employed to achieve highly efficient light trapping with improved light absorption. In this context, cylindrical and conical nanostructures are shown to render themselves as better light absorption surfaces. The effects of the Al x Ga 1−x As nanostructures geometrical parameters and the Al concentration (x %) on the optical characteristics of the proposed solar absorber (SA) are studied. The optical performance of the suggested SA is numerically simulated using three-dimensional finite difference time domain method. The reported absorber has a superior performance in terms of absorption and short circuit current density, compared to its counterparts in the literature. The SA with cylindrical and truncated cone nanostructures can offer a high short circuit current density of 31.28 and 33.20 mA∕cm 2 , respectively.

The method of modified metal-assisted electrochemical etching was proposed and arrays of nanostructured porous silicon wires on n-type monocrystalline silicon substrate with crystallographic orientation (111) were obtained. The influence of the electrolyte composition at the second stage of obtaining on the morphology of silicon wires by scanning electron microscopy methods was revealed. The phase composition of porous silicon wires was controlled by Raman spectroscopy.
