Invasion of CdSe Nanoparticles for Photosensitization of Porous TiO2

Invasion of CdSe nanoparticles in porous TiO2 film is carried out using low temperature chemical process. The presence of self-grown CdSe nanoparticles in porous TiO2 was confirmed from optical absorption study. The structural and surface morphological properties were studied by using and X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques, respectively. Increase in electrochemical performance due to CdSe nanoparticles invasion is observed and reported.
