Photovoltaic properties of semiconductor (ZnSe)/polymer (PEO-Chitosan blend) junction for solar cells applications
The properties of ZnSe/PEO junction photoelectrochemical cells have been studied under dark and illuminated conditions. ZnSe was electrodeposited onto an indium tin oxide (ITO) glass and the polymer film of PEO-chitosan: NH4I (+I2) was placed over it followed by another ITO glass. The polymer fil...

Summary: | The properties of ZnSe/PEO junction photoelectrochemical cells have been
studied under dark and illuminated conditions. ZnSe was electrodeposited onto an
indium tin oxide (ITO) glass and the polymer film of PEO-chitosan: NH4I (+I2) was placed
over it followed by another ITO glass. The polymer film was prepared by the solution
cast technique. The open circuit voltage (Voc) of the fabricated cells was between 300
mV to 400 mV. In the dark the device operates as a diode while under illumination it
operates as a photoelectrochemical cell. |
