Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of dye-sensitized solar cells and particularly provides a method for preparing a metal-doped low-energy gap nanocrystalline semiconductor photo-anode film. The method comprises the steps of: preparing low-energy gap metal-doped nano-titanium dioxide powder and a gel precursor, and then spinning the powder and gel on a conductive glass substrate to obtain a low-energy gap doped porous nano-titanium dioxide photo-anode film. The method realizes the control to the size of a semi-conductor titanium dioxide energy gap and the position of an LUMO energy level thereof through one, two or more different metals, widens an absorption spectral band of the photo-anode film, ensures that an anode can also absorb the sunlight to generate photogenerated electrons and cavities when electrons are transmitted, improves the utilization rate of the sunlight, also improves the energy level matching performance of the photo-anode film and dye molecules, improves an Femi energy level of a titanium dioxide anode material at the same time, remarkably enhances the open-circuit voltage, can greatly improve the photoelectric conversion performance of the cells, and improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cells.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a method for preparing a metal-doped low-energy-gap nanocrystalline semiconductor photoanode and its application in dye-sensitized solar cells. Background technique: [0002] In the world's energy structure, primary petrochemical energy such as oil, natural gas, and coal occupies a dominant position. With the sharp reduction of petrochemical energy and the increasingly serious environmental pollution, it is imminent to develop clean and renewable energy. Solar energy is an inexhaustible, inexhaustible, pollution-free, cheap energy that humans can use freely. Compared with wind energy and water energy, it is not restricted by geographical conditions and can be used on a large scale. [0003] At present, silicon solar cells occupy a dominant position in the market, but due to the high cost of silicon solar cells and the emission of a large number of toxic by-products in the m...
