摘要
Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are promising materials for photovoltaic applications due to their solution processibility and size-dependent band gap tunability. The electron transport layer (ETL) is an important component of PbS CQD solar cells, and the quality of the zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnO NP) ETL film significantly impacts both the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and fabrication yield of CQD solar cells. We report on multiple methods to improve the quality of ZnO NP ETL films and demonstrate increased PCE and device yield in standard CQD solar cells employing optimized ZnO NP films. We also discuss the application of these methods in an inverted CQD solar cell architecture.
