The photovoltaicperformanceofalloyedCdTexS1x quantumdots(QDs)sensitizedsolar
cells(QDSSCs)asafunctionoftuningthebandgapofalloyedCdTexS1x QDs isstudied.
The tuningofbandgapwascarriedoutthroughcontrollingthemolarratio(x) ofQDs.
PresynthesizedalloyedCdTexS1x QDs ofdifferent x values(0,0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8,and1)
were depositedbydirectadsorption(DA)techniqueontoalayerofTiO2 nanoparticles

The maximumvaluesof Jsc (1.54mA/cm2) and η (0.31%)wereobtainedfor x¼0.6.
