摘要: The process disclosed herein produces macroscopic quantities of semiconducting arsenic sulfide nanofibers within one to three days. is biotically influenced by the bacteria Shewanella sp. Strain ANA-3. fibers are semiconductors with bandgaps between 2.2 and 2.5 eV. Newly measured bandgap properties can lead applications in semiconductor, transistor, solar energy fields. A faster more robust biological component makes overall commercially feasible than it would have been otherwise. rate allows for larger yields a predetermined period time.
