Enhanced performance of quantum dots sensitized solar cell utilizing copper indium sulfide and reduced-graphene oxide with the presence of silver sulfide

In this study, rGO/CuInS2 has been successfully prepared onto TiO2 thin film using solvothermal method followed by Ag2 S deposition layer by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction deposition (SILAR) technique. The morphology, structural, and optical properties of TiO2 /rGO/CuInS2 t...
