Fabrication of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Based on TiO2-ZnO Double Layer Nanostructured Film, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mohammadi, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
In the present work, one dimensional ZnO nanostructures were grown by seed-assisted hydrothermal method. Hydrothermal processing parameters were controlled to obtain ZnO nanorods with diameter lower than 120 nm. The products were characterized by FE-SEM, EDAX, XRD, PL, and ATR-FTIR analyses. ZnO nanoparticles were also synthesized via a simple solvothermal method and their photo peropeties were compared with onedimensional nanostructures. Thereafter dye-sensitized solar cells based on TiO2-ZnO double layer nanostructured film were fabricated. It was observed that DSSC efficiency increased with decreasing the thickness of the film. The highest efficiency of 2.41% was obtained
