One of the strategies to boost the efficiency of highly promising yet struggling quantum dot solar cells (QDSCs) is to dope the QDs with optically active Mn2+ ions to create long-lived charge carriers and reduce the electron-hole recombination. The in situ deposition of QDs. although offers good surface coverage and better charge separation; in doped QDSCs the type of doping responsible for higher efficiencies cannot be ascertained. In the electrophoretically deposited Mn:CdS QDSCs, highest lattice doping of Mn2+ ions in presynthesized colloidal CdS QDs results in the highest efficiency, whereas exchange coupled Mn2+-Mn2+ pairs increase nonradiative electron-hole recombination and decrease the efficiency of QDSCs. With Mn:Cd at. % of 1.44, the efficiency could be increased to 2.1% as compared to 1.3% for CdS QDSC. The increase in efficiency by 66.4% is due to slower charge recombination in the photoanode and the electrolyte interface and higher electron lifetime in the doped QDSCs.
