Patent number: 9231223Abstract: The present invention provides of a three-dimensional bicontinuous heterostructure, a method of producing same, and the application of this structure towards the realization of photodetecting and photovoltaic devices working in the visible and the near-infrared. The three-dimensional bicontinuous heterostructure includes two interpenetrating layers which are spatially continuous, they are include only protrusions or peninsulas, and no islands. The method of producing the three-dimensional biocontinuous heterostructure relies on forming an essentially planar continuous bottom layer of a first material; forming a layer of this first material on top of the bottom layer which is textured to produce protrusions for subsequent interpenetration with a second material, coating this second material onto this structure; and forming a final coating with the second material that ensures that only the second material is contacted by subsequent layer.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: InVisage Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Edward Sargent, Steven Ashworth McDonald, Shiguo Zhang, Larissa Levina, Gerasimos Konstantatos, Paul Cyr
