Abstract
An all-inorganic thin film solar cell was fabricated with colloidal CdTe and CdSe nanocrystals. Its temperaturedependent photovoltaic characterization was measured, and an open circuit voltage decay technique was used to determine the electron lifetime. The photovoltaic parameters, such as the exact carrier lifetime, were remarkably different between under low-temperature region and under temperature above 267 K. It is suggested that the temperature-dependent carrier conductivity results from a thermally-activated hopping process and this nanocrystals device is a kind of donor-acceptor solar cell.
