Synthesis of Carbon-Carbon Quantum Dot-Enhanced Thin-Film Perovskite Photovoltaic Cells
By Kaiwan
The proposed project hopes to build upon current applications of quantum dots and photovoltaic cell creation. Centered around the use of Chemical Vapor Deposition, this experiment will involve the deposition of thin-film perovskite solar cells onto a generic glass slide, creating quantum dot-enhanced photovoltaic cells (QDPVCs). My hypothesis is that, through quantum coherence, the use of quantum dots as the cell's electron conductor will easily increase the spectral response of solar cells, providing a readily employable improvement to modern photovoltaic cells.
