Electrophoretic Deposition Of Cdse Nanoparticles Photoanode For Quantum Dots Sensitized Solar Cells

CdSe nanoparticle was used as sensitizer in quantum dots sensitized solar cell (QDSSC). CdSe film was deposited on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate by using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) as photoanode. The uniformity and coverage of CdSe film leading to improve efficiency and charge trans...
