Abstract:
The effect of polyethylenimine(PEI) concentration on the morphology,wire density and size of ZnO nanowire arrays was systematically studied by X-ray diffraction(XRD),transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM).The photovoltaic properties of ZnO nanowire array films were also investigated.It is demonstrated that,for a ZnO nanowire array film obtained from 7.3 mmol·L
-1 PEI,an energy conversion efficiency of about 0.66% was obtained,which is the highest for ZnO nanowire array films prepared with different PEI concentrations from 3.2 mmol·L
-1 to 9.3 mmol·L
-1.
