Intermediate Band PhotoSensitive device with Quantum Dots that are inserted in Tunnel Barrier formation of Organic Matrix

摘要

A Plurality of Quantum Dots each a structure. Quantum Dots are embedded in an organic Matrix. At least the quantum dots and the Organic Matrix are photoconductive Semiconductors.The structure of each Quantum Dot is prepared as a Tunneling barrier to require a charge Carrier (Electron or Hole) at a base of the Tunneling Barrier in the Organic Matrix of a quantum mechanical Tunnel to reach the respective Quantum Dot.A First Quantum State in each Quantum Dot is between a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (lumo) and the highest occupied molecular orbital (Homo) of the Organic Matrix. The Wave functions of the First Quantum State of the Plurality of Quantum Dots may overlap to form an intermediate Band.
