Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor nanometer materials. More specifically, the present invention relates to a ZnO / CdTe / CdS nano-cable array electrode for solar cells, and also relates to a preparation method of the ZnO / CdTe / CdS nano-cable array electrode. 【Background technique】 [0002] In recent years, due to the advantages of semiconductor quantum dots or nanocrystals with high absorption efficiency, adjustable band gap, high resistance to photodegradation, and multi-exciton generation effects, one-dimensional array electrodes can effectively reduce electron scattering and electron transport paths. To improve the electron diffusion length and photovoltaic path, researchers gradually use quantum dots or nanocrystals to sensitize one-dimensional oxide nanoarray electrodes to prepare semiconductor-sensitized solar cells (SSSC for short). In the SSSC structure, since ZnO and TiO 2 The band gap is wide, the transmittance to ...
