Biological Synthesis of CdS/CdSe Core/Shell Nanoparticles and Its Application in Quantum Dot Sensitized Solar Cells

In the present work, we report the use of bacterial cells for the production of CdS/CdSe Core/Shell quantum dots (QDs), a complex nanostructure specially designed to improve their performance as photosensitizer in photovoltaic devices. The method requires the incorporation of L-cysteine, CdCl2 and N...
