Penumbuhan Nanorod Zno Di-Doping Aluminium Dengan Variasi Persentase Konsentrasi Dan Efeknya Terhadap Performansi Dye Sensitized Solar Cells
Aluminum doped ZnO nanorods with various percentage concentrations of Al 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2% have been successfully grown on FTO using hydrothermal method at a temperature of 90° C for 8 hours. The FESEM images showed that the geometrical shape of all the sampels was nanorods with hexagonal face shape. The Al 1% doped sample produced the highest density, thickness and uniformity of ZnO nanorods with diameter ranged form 122.8 to 267.0 and the thicknes was 1.999 μm. The XRD patterns showed five XRD peaks at 2θ: 31.73°, 34.60°, 36.25°, 47.70°, and 56.89° with their of crystal planes (100), (002), (101), (012) and (110). The strongest line of intensity was at the crystal plane (002) with its FWHM of 0.2715°. The UV-Vis spectra showed that strong absoption occured in the range of 320 to 385 nm for all samples. The highest intensity of absorption of the Al 1% sample was 3.670 a.u. Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC) was fabricated using Al doped ZnO nanorods as an active material, dye N719, liquid electrolit and platisol as a catalyst on counter eletrode. The highest efficiency of the produced DSSC was 0.335%, it means that the Al doping to the ZnO nanorods increased the efficiency up to 214.83% compared to that of the pure ZnO based DSSC (0.098%).
Keywords: Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC), ZnO nanorods, Hydrothermal, Aluminium.
