1. A device comprising:
- a substrate;
one or more of a nanostructure extending essentially perpendicularly from the substrate;
wherein the nanostructure comprises a core of a doped semiconductor of a first type, a first layer comprising a lightly doped amorphous semiconductor or an intrinsic amorphous semiconductor, and a second layer comprising a heavily doped amorphous semiconductor layer of a second type opposite from the first type, wherein the first layer is disposed on the core and the second layer is disposed on the first layer.
