Fabrication of ZnO Nanopillars and Their Application to Organic Photovoltaic Cells Based on Conducting Polymer and Fullerene

摘要

The fabrication of ZnO nanopillars by electrodeposition and their application to an organic photovoltaic cell have been studied. The growth of ZnO nanopillars on indium-tin-oxide coated quartz substrates strongly depends on the conditions of electrodeposition. The use of a ZnO nanopillar in organic photovoltaic cells with a C_(60)/poly(3-hexylthiophene) interpenetrating interface resulted in improved performance.
