Study on Photoelectrochemical Performance of ZnO Nanotube /CdSeQuantum Dot-Sensitized Solar Cell

Abstract

ZnO; Quantum Dot-sensitized Solar Cell; CdSe; Photoelectrochemical property Abstract: ZnO nanotubes (NTs) were successfully fabricated with a hydrothermal method at low temperature. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have been utilized to characterize the samples. The ZnO nanotubes, sensitized by CdSe, were used as a photoanode of a quantum dot sensitized solar cell, which generated a maximum power conversion efficiency of 0.95%.
