Electrochemical photovoltaic cells/stabilization and optimization of II-VI semiconductors. Final report, 15 April 1980-31 July 1982
This report presents results of research conducted to provide a basis for designing a practical electrochemical solar cell based on the II-VI compound semiconductors. Emphasis is on developing new solvent/redox systems and conducting films that will stabilize the II-VI compounds against photodissolution without seriously degrading the long-term solar response. The use of redox couples in conjunction with protective films seems to be the most promising approach to attaining a practical electrochemical solar cell. Encouraging results have also been obtained for protection of photoanodes with organic films. Electrochemical photocapacitance spectroscopy (EPS) has been a demonstrated as sensitive means of characterizing deep trap levels in semiconductor materials.
