摘要
CuInS2 (CIS) nanoparticles were synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method using pomegranate marc peel (PMP) dyes-Cu(II) as a new copper precursor and sodium sulfite (Na2SO3) as a reducing agent. The PMP has several dyes such as proanthocyanidins and flavonoids which can be easily extracted by transition metal ions in which we have focused on this work to prepare of copper precursor and dye solar cells. Besides, the effect of HCl on the morphology and particle size of the product was investigated. Furthermore, to investigate the effect of different dyes and CIS nanoparticles on solar cell efficiencies several experiments were conducted. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
