In this paper, we present an integrated device in which an UV detector and a supercapacitor are built on the same vertical-aligned silicon nanowire (SiNW) array electrode. It is found that the embedded supercapacitor is of an impressive capacitance density of 13.6 F cm−3 and able to power the detect...
