Preferential Growth of Long ZnO Nanowire Array and Its Application in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Xu, Chengkun, Shin, Paul, Cao, Liangliang, Gao, Di·2010·The Journal of Physical Chemistry C

Abstract

A liquid-phase chemical process for preferential growth of long ZnO nanowires has been developed. The process effectively suppresses homogeneous nucleation and prevents formation of ZnO particles in the bulk solution while allowing rapid growth of ZnO nanowires on seeded substrates. With this process, ZnO nanowires on seeded substrates can grow at an initial rate over 10 times faster than that in the previous process with bulk ZnO precipitation and nanowires of more than 30 μm can be readily obtained within 10 h. The ultralong ZnO nanowires enable fabrication of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) with up to 33 μm thick sensitizing films (the thickest in the literatures) while maintaining high electron collection efficiency, which results in greatly improved performance compared to previously reported ZnO nanowire-based DSCs.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
