Flexible photovoltaic cells based on a graphene–CdSe quantum dot nanocomposite

Abstract

We have fabricated the flexible photoelectrode by loading graphene sheets modified with CdSe QDs. A power conversion efficiency of ∼0.6% and an incident photon to current conversion efficiency of 17% have been achieved for this flexible photovoltaic cell based on a graphene–CdSe nanocomposite.
