## Abstract We fabricated and studied solar cells based on a distributed nanocoax architecture by depositing amorphous silicon as photovoltaic medium on arrays of aligned multiwalled carbon nanotubes. These inexpensive cells demonstrate an initial efficiency of 6.1% that can be further enhanced by
Functionalization with amine groups of MWNTs was achieved after such steps as carboxylation, acylation and amidation. XRD, Raman, FTIR, XPS, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate and determine the chemical structure and texture of the amino-functionalized MWNTs. By comparing wi
