Au and CdTe nanoparticles were stabilized by 4-（dimethylamino）pyridine （DMAP） and 3-mercaptopropionic acid to develop positive and negative charges on their surfaces in aqueous solutions, respectively. The red shifts of the surface plasmon absorptions with the increase of Au content indicate that the sizes of the nanocomposites expanded due to the complex formation. Mixing ratio of Au and CdTe nanoparticles controls the structure of the resulting composites effectively. Moreover, the sizes and shapes of the mixed nanoparticles are important parameters for the formation of metal/semiconductor nanocomposites. The Au/CdTe nanocomposites were characterized by small angle X-ray scattering technique （SAXS）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, cyclic voltammetry （CV） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）.展开更多

Vertically oriented ZnO sub-micron tubes were obtained on an indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate, and then CdTe nanocrystals and a thin P3MT layer were electrodeposited sequentially onto the walls of the ZnO sub-micron tubes. A suitable thickness of CdTe and P3MT could improve the photovoltaic properties of the solar cell, which was attributed to the enhancement in the light absorption and the decrease in the recombination of photogenerated carriers. In addition, a p–n heterojunction formed between the interface of CdTe and P3MT played an important part in the efficient separation and fast transport of photogenerated carriers in the sub-micron structure. A power conversion efficiency of 1.20% was obtained with this type of solar cell.展开更多
