چکیده

An oxidative stripping treatment triggers the transition from n- to p-type photoelectrochemical behavior of zinc copper indium sulfide quantum dot electrodes. These electrodes in contact with a polysulfide solution change from photoanodic to photocathodic behavior in a certain potential range upon electrochemical treatment.

Quantum dot-sensitized solar cells based on directly adsorbed zinc copper indium sulfide colloids.

Heavy metal-based quantum dots (QDs) have been demonstrated to behave as efficient sensitizers in QD-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs), as attested by the countless studies and encouraging efficiencies reported so far. However, their intrinsic toxicity has arisen as a major issue for the prospects of commercialization. Here, we examine the potential of environmentally friendly zinc copper indium ...

Porous copper zinc tin sulfide thin film as photocathode for double junction photoelectrochemical solar cells.

Porous copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) thin film was prepared via a solvothermal approach. Compared with conventional dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), double junction photoelectrochemical cells using dye-sensitized n-type TiO(2) (DS-TiO(2)) as the photoanode and porous p-type CZTS film as the photocathode shows an increased short circuit current, external quantum efficiency and power conversi...

Ion exchange growth of Zinc Sulfide quantum dots in aqueous solution

We report the growth by ion exchange synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles in MCM-41 matrices using Zn (CH3COO)2 and Na2S starting sources. The final product (ZnS/MCM-41) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectrometry (IR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. Its crystalline st...
