Pulsed-laser-ablation based nanodecoration of multi-wall-carbon nanotubes by Co–Ni nanoparticles for dye-sensitized solar cell counter electrode applications

Abstract We report here on the use of pulsed KrF-laser deposition technique (PLD) for the decoration of Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by Co–Ni nanoparticles (NPs) to form highly efficient counter electrodes (CEs) for use in Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). By varying the number of laser abl...
