▎ 摘  要

Graphene nanosheet devices have attracted significant interest in transistor and photodetector applications owing to photothermoelectric effects of graphene. However, their solar energy conversion ability has not been fully explored due to disadvantages of their transparency and zero gap semiconductor in this special field. Here, we propose the potential of graphene-carbon nanotube papers for energy conversion and storage under sunlight and heat. We show that macroscopic 3-dimensional structure of graphene-carbon nanotube papers provides advantages over graphene nanomaterials in converting large area power sources, namely solar and thermal energy into considerable current and voltage. We also report a graphene-carbon nanotube paper stack with p-n interfaces that incorporates a solar/thermal energy cell and a pen junction capacitor, which can be simultaneously used for energy conversion and storage with a charge-storage capacity of 70.5 mu C cm(-2) at one sun intensity.
