CNT@rGO@MoCuSe Composite as an Efficient Counter Electrode for Quantum Dot-Sensitized Solar Cells

Abstract: This paper reports an efficient and simple strategy for the synthesis of molybdenum copper selenide (MoCuSe) nanoparticles decorated with a combination of a carbon nanotube (CNT) network and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets to form an integrated hybrid architecture (CNT@rGO@MoCuSe) using a two-step hydrothermal approach. The synthesized hybrid CNT@rGO@MoCuSe material onto the Ni foam substrate is applied successfully as an effective counter electrode (CE) in quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs). … Show more

“…This paves the way towards future works focused on copper(I) complexes electrolytes 15,53 , thiolate/disulphide [54][55][56] for tandem solar cells, and polysulfides for quantum dot sensitized solar cells. 57,58 Experimental Materials Thiophene (extra purity ≥99%) and ferrocene (purity = 98%) were obtained from Acros Organics and 2-butanol (purity >99%) from Sigma Aldrich. Ferrocene was purified by a sublimation/recrystallization process.…”

“…As discussed above, another function of electrolyte is transporting holes to CE side for reduction reaction under the catalysis of CE materials. It should be noted that the CE plays a crucial role in determining the photovoltaic performance of QDSCs, especially for the fill factor (FF) value of the solar cells [6,28,[45][46][47][48][49] . The electrolyte reduction reaction is mainly affected by two factors: the catalytic activity of CE and the property of electrolyte redox couple.…”
