Thin Solid Films 518 (24 SUPPL.) : e68-e71. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsf.2010.03.125 | Abstract: | Nanostructured ZnO aggregates are synthesized via a hydrolysis route using zinc acetate dehydrate and diethylene glycol as the starting materials under carefully controlled conditions. They are employed in making a series of pastes with various ratios of the ZnO to ethyl cellulose for dye-sensitized solar cells, where the ZnO films are formed by doctor blade technique. Use of ethyl cellulose significantly reduces micro-cracks in the oxide films. The paste with 10 wt.% ethyl cellulose demonstrates a promising energy conversion efficiency of 3.68% under the AM1.5 100 mW/cm2 illumination. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. | Source Title: | Thin Solid Films | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/86784 | ISSN: | 00406090 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.tsf.2010.03.125 |
