Effect of Dopants on the Performance of ZnSe Nanoparticles as Photocathode for Dye Sensitized Solar Cell
Author(s): Rose CIR, Raj MF and Rajendran JA
Zinc selenide (ZnSe), copper, nickel, and cobalt doped ZnSe (Cu, Ni, Co-ZnSe) nanoparticles were effectively synthesized through solvothermal method. The as-synthesized ZnSe nanoparticles were described to their optical, structural, elemental composition, morphological properties and electrochemical studies. X-ray diffraction pattern supports hexagonal, wurtzite structure and the crystallite sizes were justified as 13.7, 13.1, 10.6 and 7.9 nm for ZnSe, Cu, Ni and Co-ZnSe nanoparticles respectively, which are further confirmed by TEM analysis. Band-gap energy was computed as 2.5, 2.7, 3.2 and 3.5 eV for ZnSe, Cu, Ni, Co-ZnSe nanoparticles. Scanning electron microscopic images showed the formation of rod shaped nanoparticles, and the effective doping was furth... view more»
