Abstract
A bipolar nanocomposite semiconductor (BNS) material in which electrons and holes are separately transported throughout the BNS volume via an interpenetrating plurality of networks, where some of the networks have one conductivity type and others have the opposite conductivity type. The interpenetrating networks can include one or more multiple nanocrystalline structures, metal and dielectric networks and are intimately connected to enable band-like transport of both electrons and holes throughout the material.
