This work focuses on the performance of Al-doped CdS quantum dot (QD)/TiO2 solar cells. The devices were analyzed through current-voltage and capacitance-voltage measurements. It was observed from the analysis of absorption spectra that TiO2 nanowires improve the absorption of light of Al doped CdS QDs both in visible and near infrared (NIR) range. Current-voltage characteristics curve of Al doped CdS/TiO2 at different illuminations show that decrease in illumination (from 100 to 5 mW/cm2), affects the voltage and current correspondingly. Power-voltage curve at various intensities of light indicates that power of the solar cell increases with the increase of the bias voltage and reaches its maximum value at each value of light illumination intensity. The peak value of power at maximum illumination is 35 µW at 0.20 V and with decreasing illumination the peak value decreases. Capacitance-voltage measurements reveal that by increasing the bias voltage from −2.0 V to 0 V, the capacitance voltage indicates the rising trend. However, at 5 kHz and 10 kHz frequencies, it was observed that a marginal increase of capacitance was noticed with exceeding bias voltage. The results revealed that subsequent addition of the TiO2 nanowires significantly improved the output performance of QDSSC. |
