Flexible quantum dot sensitized solar cell by electrophoretic deposition of CdSe quantum dots on ZnO nanorods

Abstract

We report on a flexible quantum dot-sensitized solar cell (QDSSC) based on ZnO nanorods with a length of 2 μm. Due to the good coverage of CdSe QDs on ZnO by the electrophoretic deposition method, a maximum power conversion efficiency of ∼1% is achieved for the flexible QDSSC.
