Photovoltaic activity in a ZnSe/PEO-chitosan blend electrolyte junction

Abstract Thin films of ZnSe and PEO–chitosan blend polymer doped with NH4I and iodine crystals were prepared to form the two sides of a semiconductor electrolyte junction. ZnSe was electrodeposited on indium tin oxide (ITO) conducting glass. The polymer is a blend of 50 wt% chitosan and 50 wt%...
