Abstract

We report an improved quantum dot sensitized solar cell (QDSSC) by loading mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)-capped CdSe QDs on TiO 2 film in aqueous solution. Under suitable pH value, a power conversion efficiency of 1.19% and an incident photon to current conversion efficiency of 26% for the QDSSC were obtained at AM1.5G irradiation. The improved performance of QDSSC is attributed to the large loading and good coverage of QDs on TiO 2 film with optimal pH value.
