Nanocomposites for Solar Cell Application

Abstract

A nanocomposite material is constituted by a matrix and a reinforcement consisting of fibers. Solar cells are devices for converting sunlight into electricity. Their primary element is often a semiconductor which absorbs light to produce carriers of electrical charge.The structures of hybrid nanocomposites studied so far, and attempt to associate the power conversion efficiency with these nanostructures. Subsequently, to summarize the factors for optimizing the performance of inorganic/organic solar cells. There are few important methods for synthesis i.e. intercalation, in-situ polymerization, sol gel, direct mixing method etc. this work represents the review on synthesis, characterization of polymer nanocomposites for solar cell application.
