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.

Summary: A novel photoanode based on CdSe/CdS@SnO2 core/shell nanoparticles was fabricated for highly efficient quantum dots and dye-sensitized tandem solar cells. The introduction of a SnO2 nanolayer in the CdSe/CdS@SnO2 at N719 device avoids quantum dots corrosion and collects electrons from surrounding N719 and CdSe/CdS core, transferring them to the front FTO electrode. Photovoltaic performance tests demonstrate the enhanced stability of the cell, with no attenuation in short-circuit current J(sc) and gradual increase in open-circuit voltage V-oc, resulting in improved photoelectric conversion efficiency. An optimal power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 5.43% is achieved for tandem solar cells.

Summary: In this study, different ligands including oleic acid (OA), oleylamine and tri-n-octylphosphine (OAm-TOP), and OA-TOP were utilized for the synthesis of CdSe quantum dots (QDs). The effects of these ligands on the photovoltaic performance of CdSe QD-sensitized solar cells (QDSCs) were systematically investigated. It was found that CdSe QDs coated with OAm-TOP or OA-TOP exhibited an extended absorption range compared to those coated with OA, as confirmed by UV-vis absorption spectra. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis revealed that CdSe QDs synthesized with OAm-TOP or OA-TOP effectively passivated surface defects, leading to an improvement in the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of the devices. The optimized PCE of 3.6% was achieved for CdSe QDSCs modified with OAm-TOP.
