Abstract

The invention discloses an NaYF4:Ln<3+>/C/TiO2 composite photoanode and a preparation method thereof, and relates to a composite photoanode and a preparation method thereof. The photoanode and the method aim at solving the problem that a dye-sensitized solar cell assembled by the existing composite photoanode is low in photoelectric conversion efficiency. The composite photoanode is prepared by rare earth nanocrystallines, C quantum dots, TiO2 and FTO (Fluorine doped Tin Oxide) conductive glass. The preparation method comprises the steps that 1, a rare earth nitrate solution, a surfactant and a fluorine source solution are mixed and subjected to solvent heat treatment; 2, NaYF4:Ln<3+> nanocrystallines are obtained after washing and drying; 3, the nanocrystallines, the C quantum dots and PVP (Poly Vinyl Pyrrolidone) are mixed; 4, a mixed material is mixed with tetrabutyl titanate, and subjected to electrostatic spinning; 5, a composite micro fiber is prepared by roasting; 6, mixed sol is prepared; and 7, the surface of the FTO glass is coated with the mixed sol by a knife coating method, and the composite photoanode is prepared. The composite photoanodes are assembled to form the dye-sensitized solar cell, and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell reaches 7%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a composite photoanode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Dye-sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs for short) have attracted widespread attention at home and abroad due to their low cost, simple process and easy repeatability. The dye-sensitized semiconductor photoanode is a key part of DSSCs, which largely determines the photoelectric conversion efficiency of DSSCs. At present, the commonly used dyes are bipyridyl ruthenium series compounds, and their absorption range is mainly between 400-600nm. The absorption of long-wave visible light and infrared light, which accounts for 43% of the total energy of sunlight, is weak, which limits DSSCs to a certain extent. Further improvement of photoelectric conversion efficiency. By broadening the spectral response range of the dye, optimizing the semiconductor surface structure and composition, and strengthening the combination between the dye and the semiconduct...
