This research was undertaken to provide a better understanding of the parameters that must be controlled to make efficient electrochemical photovoltaic solar cells with inexpensive in situ energy storage. It has been demonstrated that reproducible, ''stable'' polycrystalline CdSe photoelectrochemical photovoltaic solar cells (PEC) can be made with AMl efficiencies of about 6%. The emphasis of the program has shifted from attempts to optimize these cells to developing the basic characterization techniques that will enhance the understanding of the semiconductor-liquid interface. Characterization techniques were largely borrowed from solid-state counterparts. The techniques that were emphasized include dark current (frequency dispersion of the impedance), optical reflectivity (electrolyte electroreflectance) and photoluminescence (electric field modulated photoluminescence). Included are abstracts and references to papers already published and preprints of papers submitted but not yet published about this five year research effort. Separate abstracts are provided for the five papers that have not been published. |
