A Low-Cost Polytetrafluoroethylene-Framed TiO2 Electrode Decorated with Oleic Acid-Capped CdSe Quantum Dots for Solar Cell

Colloidal CdSe QDs have been assembled, as quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs), on a novel architecture comprising a polytetrafluoroethylene- (PTFE-) framed TiO2 electrode for the first time. CdSe QDs are anchored on the surface of the film using a linker molecule (3-mercaptopropionic acid,...
