Abstract

The invention aims at providing a topological insulator thin film with photovoltaic characteristics and a preparation method thereof. A chemical vapor deposition method is used for preparing the thin film and is characterized by comprising the step in which a topological insulator material is evaporated and deposited on a silicon substrate to obtain the topological insulator thin film. The thin film has a full-daylight band photoelectric response capability. Sunlight is used as a light source. The photoelectric response time of an n-TI / p-Si or p-TI / n-Si two-layer structure thin film is lower than 1 s. The area of a tested sample is 9 to 15 square millimeter, the strongest sunlight intensity is 200 W / m<2>, open circuit photo voltage reaches 0.1 V and short circuit photo current reaches tens of microamperes, which increase along with increasing of the thin film area and the sunlight intensity, and the topological insulator thin film with photovoltaic characteristics and the preparation method thereof are applicable to a solar cell.
