The surface chemistry and interface engineering of lead sulphide colloidal quantum dots for photovoltaic applications

This thesis examines the effect of lead sulphide (PbS) CQDs' surface chemistry and interfaces to their photovoltaic performance. Using PbS CQDs as the starting material, cation-exchange was utilised to form PbS/CdS core/shell CQDs, which were thoroughly characterised and the improved surface pa...
