Effect of ZnO Double Layer as Anti-Reflection Coating Layer in ZnO Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

© 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. Dye-sensitized solar cells based on ZnO double layer anti-reflection coating (DLARC) thin films are investigated. The ZnO DLARCs were prepared by stacking two different ZnO morphologies prepared by two different techniques including rf-magneton sputteri...
