摘要
通过在TiO_2和量子点之间添加钝化层进行光阳极的优化,可以调节光阳极界面结构,从而增加产生的光电流,与没有钝化层的光阳极数据相比,在更宽的光谱范围内增强了光电转换效率。TiO_2纳米片具有较高的电子输运效率,主要原因是其表面积大,光散射特性增强。由于CuS钝化层很好地修饰了TiO_2纳米片表面缺陷会使其光电转换性能提高,得到在标准模拟太阳光AM 1.5G,100 mW/cm~2下,沉积CuS钝化层的电池能量转换效率达到4.71%,远高于未沉积钝化层的电池效率3.91%。
The research of quantum dot sensitized solar cells(QDSSCs)is mainly to improve their photoelectric conversion efficiency.In this paper,by adding passivation layer between TiO_2 and quantum dots to optimize the photoanode,and thus the photocurrent generated could be increased.Compared with the photoanode without passivation layer,the photoelectric conversion efficiency can be enhanced in a wider spectral range.TiO_2 nanosheets(NS)has higher electron transport efficiency,mainly due to their large surface area and enhanced light scattering characteristics.Because the CuS passivation layer modified the surface defects of the TiO_2 nanosheet,the photoelectric conversion performance is improved.The power conversion efficiency of the TiO_2 NS/CuS/QDs QDSSCs is4.71% under the standard simulated AM 1.5 G,100 mW/cm~2,which is higher than that of the QDSSCs without passivation layer 3.91%.
