Abstract

The transparent semiconducting copper iodide(CuI)films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and their structural and optoelectrical properties in the power output ofTiO2|Dye|CuIcells are reported. TheseCuIfilms exhibited optical transmittance of over 80% in the wavelength range from 400 to 900 nm and a minimum resistivity of about 2 KΩ-cm. An efficient charge generation is observed through the illumination of theTiO2layer of the fabricatedp-CuI|Dye|n-TiO2cells. The cells performances have been given in the current–voltage (I–V) working curve under illumination when exposed to AM 1.5 illumination condition (100mW/cm2, 25°C). The maximum short circuit photo current density(Jsc)of about12.2mA/cm2and open circuit photo voltage(Voc)of about 480 mV were obtained for theTiO2|Dye|CuIcells with good reproducibility. The fill factor(FF)and power conversion efficiency (η) were about 47.8% and 2.8%, respectively.
