The CdS quantum dots were deposited on TiO2 films by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method. The optical band gap values of the TiO2 and CdS films were determined to be 3.42 eV and 2.49 eV, respectively. The short-circuit photocurrent density (J(SC)) and the open-circuit voltage for the solar cell under AM 1.5 illumination were found to be 5.27 +/- 0.02 mA/cm(2) and 0.5 +/- 0.04 V, respectively. The efficiency of the solar cell was determined to be 1.33%. The efficiency of the solar cell is higher than that of efficiency of the co-sensitized solar cell fabricated using Ag2S/CdS quantum dots (1.27%) coupled with LiBOB-based liquid electrolyte. On the other hand, the efficiency of the solar cell is lower than that of dye-sensitized solar cell based on co-sensitization of TiO2 electrodes with CdS quantum dots and dye N719. These results indicate that the co-sensitization of TiO2 film can be provided with non-sulfur electrolyte and inorganic semiconductor QDs rather than organic dyes.  ISSN : 1555-130X  Journal Name : JOURNAL OF NANOELECTRONICS AND OPTOELECTRONICS  Volume : 9  Issue Number : 5  Publishing Year : 1435 AH 2014 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Sunday, July 30, 2017  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email S Wageh Wageh, S Investigator Doctorate   A.A Al-Ghamdi, Al-Ghamdi, A.A Researcher Doctorate   S Soylu Soylu, S Researcher Doctorate   Yusuf Al-Turki Al-Turki, Yusuf Researcher     Norah Al-Senany Al-Senany, Norah Researcher Doctorate   F Yakuphanoglu Yakuphanoglu, F Researcher Doctorate   Files File Name Type Description  42328.pdf pdf   Back To Researches Page
