Problems solved by technology

This type of photoanode with an array structure has a fast linear electron transport channel, which can effectively avoid the recombination loss of electrons, but on the other hand, this single nanostructure makes it difficult to effectively increase the specific surface area of ​​the photoanode, which limits the loading of dyes. amount, so the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the battery is low

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a material adopting a ZnO nanorod and ZnO nanosheet composite structure, and belongs to the technical field of nanometer material preparation. The method adopts a single-step hydrothermal reaction method, and includes the steps of placing alumina sheets and an FTO (fluorinedoped tin oxide) substrate into a high-pressure reactor at the same time, subjecting ZnNO3*6H2O to a hydrothermal reaction with a urotropin solution in the reaction system, and cooling to the room temperature after a period of reaction to prepare the material adopting the ZnO nanorod and ZnO nanosheet composite structure. The material is integrated with the electrical linear transmission passage function of a nano array structure, improves the specific surface area of a photo-anode, and guarantees high electrical transmission efficiency and large dye absorption capacity; the sheet structure grows on FTO directly, therefore the contact capacity between a photo-anode material and FTO is improved, the open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current of a DSSC (dye-sensitized solar cell) can be improved, and the wide practical application value is provided in the DSSC field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nanomaterial preparation, in particular to a method for preparing ZnO nanocolumns and ZnO nanosheet composite structure materials. Background technique [0002] ZnO is a semiconductor material with a wide band gap. Its band gap is 3.37 eV, and its exciton binding energy at room temperature is as high as 60 meV. It has excellent thermal stability and good photoelectric properties, making it suitable for optoelectronic devices, especially dyes It has potential application value in sensitized solar cells (DSSC). As photoanode materials for dye-sensitized solar cells, one-dimensional ZnO nanowire or nanorod arrays have been extensively studied. This type of photoanode with an array structure has a fast linear electron transport channel, which can effectively avoid the recombination loss of electrons, but on the other hand, this single nanostructure makes it difficult to effectively increase the specific surf...
