Summary: The research focuses on the fabrication of CdS/CdSe-sensitized quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) using laser-engineered black rutile TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs) as the photoanode material. The results show that the devices based on black TiO2-NPs have significantly higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared to those using pristine TiO2-NPs. Analysis of absorption and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy indicates that the device with the highest PCE has the highest absorption efficiency in a wide spectral range and the smallest series resistance, which can be attributed to the surface modification of TiO2-NPs by femtosecond laser pulses.
