摘要/Abstract

摘要： 为探究量子点敏化太阳能电池(QDSSCs)中光阳极薄膜材料的最佳制备条件,通过一步高温水热法合成p型NiO纳米颗粒,并采用超声法将其制备成NiO浆料,丝网印刷在导电玻璃上以形成NiO薄膜.NiO薄膜可作为量子点敏化太阳能电池的光电阴极,结合Cu₂S对电极和多硫化物电解质组装成太阳能电池.通过对不同膜厚NiO光电阴极薄膜的研究及反复测试,结果表明:当NiO薄膜材料膜厚为21 μm时该电池存在最高的光电转换效率.

Abstract: This work is to explore the best preparation conditions of photoanode film materials in quantum dot sensitized solar cells(QDSSCs). P-type NiO nanoparticles are synthetized by one-step high temperature hydrothermal method, which is then screen printed on conductive glass to form NiO films. NiO films can be used as photocathode for quantum dot sensitized solar cells. Combine with Cu₂S counter electrode, solar cells are assembled. NiO photocathode films with different film thicknesses were studied and tested repeatedly. The results show that the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency is achieved when the film thickness of NiO film material is 21 μm.

Key words: quantum dot-sensitized solar cell, NiO film, material film thickness, electrochemical performance
