| Summary: | Interaction between organic and inorganic materials is very actual both for understanding their nature and for some applications. One of directions in this area is functionalization and sensibilization of semiconductor surfaces by organic compounds for solar energy conversion. The main goal of this research is to demonstrate the possibility for immobilization of some photofunctional organic compounds on an inorganic silicon substrate at the room temperature. In particular, we have prepared a new B12–Si hybrid with the solar conversion efficiency up to Eff = 3.75% at the room temperature by chemical deposition of vitamin B12 on the patterned silicon substrate. Here, we report the correlation between morphology and functionality, as well as deposition mode for B12–Si hybrids. |
