Problems solved by technology

At present, the interface regulation of quantum dot-sensitized solar cells generally adopts the method of ZnS passivation. This method has some problems, such as the growth particles of the prepared ZnS are larger, resulting in larger particles forming the ZnS passivation layer film, and the film is relatively large. Loose, bare TiO for

Abstract

The invention discloses a quantum dot sensitized solar cell and a preparation method thereof. The quantum dot sensitized solar cell comprises a quantum dot layer which is formed on the surface of nano-crystal particles of a nano-crystal porous layer. A surface modification material precursor is deposited on the surface of the quantum dot layer by an atomic layer deposition method to form a surface modification layer. According to the application, a wide-band gap semiconductor material or insulating material is deposited on the surface of the quantum dot layer by an atomic layer deposition technology to form the surface modification layer. Compared with a traditional quantum dot solar cell which is not modified or adopts a ZnS passivation layer, compounding of photo-generated electrons and electrolyte can be inhibited more effectively and the conversion efficiency of the cell is enhanced due to atomic size deposition, tiny growth particles and a more compact surface modification layer film. The method is innovative only in that the surface modification layer is added on the basis of the existing quantum dot layer. Even if the surface modification layer is added, high-temperature treatment is not needed, and drying can be performed at room temperature. The preparation technology is simple.
