| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A solar cell using a QD superlattice, which is a three-dimensional array of highly uniform semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), is expected to have an extremely high energy conversion efficiency of 70% or more. Research has been carried out using epitaxial QDs, but breakthroughs are required for superlattice fabrication technology. In this study, we prepared a long-period QD superlattice by precipitating chemically synthesized colloidal PbS QDs on a template in a solvent. We solved the technical problem and made a good colloidal QD superlattice, and actually applied it to the QD superlattice organic solar cell. As a result, we have demonstrated that this technology is promising for achieving high energy conversion efficiency, and obtained results that indicate the direction of future research.
