$AgI/AgCl/H_2WO_4$ double heterojunctions photocatalyst was prepared via deposition-precipitation followed by ion exchange method. The structure, crystallinity, morphology, chemical content and other physical-chemical properties of the samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectra (EDX), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), and photoluminescence (PL). The photocatalytic activity of the $AgI/AgCl/H_2WO_4$ was evaluated by degrading methyl orange (MO) under visible light irradiation (${\lambda}$ > 400 nm). The double heterojunctions photocatalyst displayed more efficient photocatalytic activity than pure AgI, AgCl, $H_2WO_4$ and AgCl/$H_2WO_4$. Based on the reactive species and energy band structure, the enhanced photocatalytic activity mechanism of $AgI/AgCl/H_2WO_4$ was discussed in detail. The improved photocatalytic performance of $AgI/AgCl/H_2WO_4$ double heterojunctions could be ascribed to the enhanced interfacial charge transfer and the inhibited recombination of electron-hole pairs, which was in close relation with the $AgI/AgCl/H_2WO_4$ heterojunctions formed between AgI, AgCl and $H_2WO_4$.

The significant growth of the Si photovoltaic industry has been so far limited due to the high cost of the Si photovoltaic system. In this regard, the most expensive factors are the intrinsic cost of silicon material and the Si solar cell fabrication processes. Conventional Si solar cells have p-n junctions inside for an efficient extraction of light-generated charge carriers. However, the p-n junction is normally formed through very expensive processes requiring very high temperature (${\sim}1000^{\circ}C$). Therefore, several systems are currently under study to form heterojunctions at low temperatures. Among them, carbon nanotube (CNT)/Si hybrid solar cells are very promising, with power conversion efficiency up to 15%. In these cells, the p-type Si layer is replaced by a semitransparent CNT film deposited at room temperature on the n-doped Si wafer, thus giving rise to an overall reduction of the total Si thickness and to the fabrication of a device with cheaper methods at low temperatures. In particular, the CNT film coating the Si wafer acts as a conductive electrode for charge carrier collection and establishes a built-in voltage for separating photocarriers. Moreover, due to the CNT film optical semitransparency, most of the incoming light is absorbed in Si; thus the efficiency of the CNT/Si device is in principle comparable to that of a conventional Si one. In this paper an overview of several factors at the basis of this device operation and of the suggested improvements to its architecture is given. In addition, still open physical/technological issues are also addressed.

The Zn7e-lnSb heterojunctions was prepared by interface alloying technique. The structure of this beterojunction had p-i-n which semi-insulating ZnTe laver at interface of this heterojunction was formed by diffusing In of InSb into ZnTe crystal. The current transport mechanism of this heterojunction was Spacecharge-Limited-Current(SCLC) mechanism by hole at semi-insulating ZnTe layer. The hole wart injected from valence band of p- type SnTe crystal. Orange color electroluminescence was observed at this heterojunction when forward and reversed bias voltage applied.

We present a self-consistent numerical method for calculating the conduction-band profile and subband structure of AlGaN/GaN single heterojunctions. The subband calculations take into account the piezoelectric and spontaneous polarization effect and the Hartree and exchange-correlation interaction. We calculate the dependence of electron sheet concentration and subband energies on various structural parameters, such as the width and Al mole fraction of AlGaN, the density of donor impurities in AlGaN, and the density of acceptor impurities in GaN, as well as the electron temperature. The electron sheet concentration was sensitively dependent on the Al mole fraction and width of the AlGaN layer and the doping density of donor impurities in the AlGaN. The calculated results of electron sheet concentration as a function of the Al mole fraction are in excellent agreement with some experimental data available in the literature.

A rectifying heterojunction consisting of polyparaphenylene(PPP) and polypyrrole(PPY) films was prepared by the electrochemical method. The photoresponse in the heterojunction of PPY and PPP is similar to the absorption spectrum of undoped PPP. This fact suggests that photoresponse depends strongly upon polyparaphenylene of semiconductor. The fill-factor was calculated from the photo current-voltage curve to be 0.19, which is relatively small compared to polyacetylene-polythiophene heterojunctions.
