Abstract
CdS quantum dots (QDs) and N719/QDs cosensitized solar cells based on ZnO nanorod arrays as photoanodes were successfully constructed. The influence of deposition times for CdS QDs on photovoltaic performance of ZnO/CdS photoanodes has been studied. The optimized photovoltaic performance was obtained from the device of the ZnO/CdS(10) electrode, with a VOC of 0.52 V, a JSC of 5.07 mA cm−2, a FF of 18.36, and an η of 0.48%. The cosensitized solar cell exhibited 35% enhancement in power conversion efficiency compared with the device sensitized by CdS QDs only.
成功构建了以ZnO纳米棒阵列为光阳极的CdS量子点(QDs)和N719/QDs共敏太阳能电池。研究了CdS量子点沉积时间对ZnO/CdS光阳极光电性能的影响。ZnO/CdS(10)电极器件的光伏性能达到了最佳,VOC为0.52 V, JSC为5.07 mA cm−2,FF为18.36,η为0.48%。与仅用CdS量子点敏化的太阳能电池相比,共敏太阳能电池的功率转换效率提高了35%。
