Furthermore, Sb2S3 quantum dots were grown on nanostructured ZnO-TiO2 surfaces by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction. The photoelectrochemical performance data show that the dye-sensitized solar cells deposited on a quantum dot ZnO-TiO2 have a power conversion efficiency of 1.82% for nanoparticles, 3.00% for nanorods, 7.05% for nanopropellers, and 9.22% for nanohedgehogs. Because of its high power conversion efficiency, nanohedgehogs can be taken into account as a significant step in the development of solar cell performance for quantum-dot-sensitized solar cells.en10.1134/S1063774521060067info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTio2; Dye; Cds; Absorber; Arrays; Energy; PbsArticle666111711242-s2.0-85121373584WOS:000729237600038Q3Q4
