Carbon Black and Titanium Interlayers Between Zinc Oxide Photo Electrode and Fluorine-Doped Tin Oxide for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
摘要: Carbon black and titanium interlayers were deposited on ?uorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) anode layers using radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. On top of them, Zinc oxide (ZnO) photo anode layers were prepared using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. ZnO high binding energy as well as good breakdown strength, cohesion, and stability used as a photo electrode material for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC), but it does not have a good electrical contact to the FTO anode. To solve this problem, the carbon black and titanium interlayers were deposited. The effect of interlayers on the power conversion ef?ciency (PCE) of DSSCs was investigated. The PCE of the devices with 120-nm-thick interlayers of carbon black or titanium was 5.21 or 4.45%, respectively, which were larger than the PCE of the devices without such interlayers (3.25%). The smooth interface of the carbon black interlayer reduced the interface impedance of the ZnO photo anode effectively. On the other hand, the titanium interlayer with TiO2 on the ZnO side increased the impedance, and decreased the PCE.

FTO-TiO2 photoelectrocatalytic degradation of triphenyltin chloride coupled to photoelectro-Fenton: A mechanistic study
摘要: A powerful, simple and stable transparent photoanode based on TiO2 nanoparticles deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) was synthesized for the photoelectrocatalytic degradation of the organometallic pollutant triphenyltin chloride (TPTCl). Contrasting with most of the works on photoelectrocatalysis (PEC), FTO-TiO2 was found to be an excellent anode material for the degradation/mineralization of organic pollutants at high anodic potentials through the formation of electrochemically-induced hVB+ (dark PEC), showing a similar behavior as the so-called 'non-active' anodes like the powerful boron doped diamond electrode (BDD). The electrocatalytic efficiency was enhanced by the photoexcitation of TiO2 under UV light (PEC) and by coupling with photoelectro-Fenton (PEC-PEF): this resulted in complete degradation of TPTCl in 15 min (kapp = 0.274 min-1) and total mineralization in 2 h. The mechanisms governing the photoelectrocatalytic processes are investigated in detail by means of electrochemical measurements and chemical probes, and a mineralization pathway for TPTCl is proposed.

The Effect of Transparent Conductive Oxide Substrate on the Efficiency of SnGe-perovskite Solar Cells
摘要: The efficiency of Sn-perovskite solar cells has been dramatically improved by adopting the inverted structure solar cells and is expected to reach the efficiency of lead-based perovskite solar cell. We have observed fluctuations in the efficiency of the same perovskite material due to the type of TCO substrates. In this study, we investigated the influence of TCO substrates on the solar cell characteristics of SnGe-perovskite solar cells. It was found that the efficiency of the SnGe-perovskite solar cell is better with fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate (9.24%) than indium-doped tin oxide (ITO) substrate (7.72%). The improvement of the efficiency of the cell with FTO substrate is contributed by the improvement in the short-circuit current Jsc and Voc. The high transmittance of FTO substrate enhanced the Jsc while the Voc is influenced by the Fermi level of the transparent conductive oxide film. Although there is a difference in the surface roughness between TCO substrates, there is no direct influence on the device performance that can be observed.

Dependence of Photovoltaic Properties of Spray-Pyrolyzed F-Doped SnO2 Thin Film on Spray Solution Preparation Method
摘要: Spray pyrolysis deposition of SnCl2.2H2O- and NH4F-containing solution is an appropriate method for deposition of ?uorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), which has extensive applications in photovoltaic devices. According to a literature review, several spray preparation methods have been studied. These methods lead to both precipitated and unprecipitated spray solutions. Precipitated and unprecipitated solutions were used for deposition of FTO thin ?lms. FTO obtained from unprecipitated solution yielded the lowest sheet resistance and resistivity, which was due to its highest electron concentration (ne). However, precipitation had no in?uence on electron mobility. The x-ray diffraction patterns of precipitates showed the presence of Sn- and F-containing compounds, which implied partial depletion of F and Sn from solutions. As a result, a lower amount of F(cid:2) ions was incorporated into FTO, which led to lower ne. In addition, partial depletion of Sn led to slightly smaller FTO thickness. Finally, FTO thin ?lm deposited from unprecipitated solution gave the highest ?gure of merit. This means that precipitation in the precursor solution has deleterious effects on electrical and optical properties.

Numerical Investigation for Scale-Up of an Electron Cyclotron Resonance Plasma for Fluorine-Doped Tin Oxide Thin Film Production
摘要: A low-temperature process is required to deposit ?uorine doped tin oxide (FTO) as a transparent conductive oxide on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, as the latter is polymeric and has a low melting point. An electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma system is the best way to deposit metal oxide with high transparency and electrical conductivity at temperatures below 100 (cid:2)C. Characteristics of an ECR plasma include its high ionization energy and electron density; however, its use is limited in large-scale deposition. In order to overcome this limitation, a large-scale ECR plasma system with a dual microwave generator was designed by numerical investigation of a laboratory-scale ECR plasma system. FTO ?lms prepared in the laboratory-scale and large-scale systems were compared. The change in electrical resistivity and optical transmittance with deposition pressure in the large-scale ECR plasma system with dual linear microwave generator is similar to that observed in the laboratory-scale ECR plasma system. The velocity distribution of active species near the substrate in the large-scale ECR plasma system showed a very similar pattern to that in the laboratory-scale ECR plasma system over a range of 1.5 × 10?2 to 0.8 × 10?2 m/s. The electrical resistivity and optical transmittance of FTO ?lms deposited by a large-scale ECR plasma system using a dual microwave generator had respective values of 4.3 × 10?3 ~ 9.18 × 10?3 (cid:2) · cm and 86.5~88.2%.
