Owing to their versatile optical and electrical properties, semiconductor quantum dots are attracting attention as a material of choice for solar energy conversion. The quantum dot sensitized solar cells are considered as one of the most promising next-generation solar cells as they have the advantage of tunable band-gap energy and multiple exciton generation. We present here a study on quantum dot sensitized solar cells considering their construction and working, impact of incorporation of nanomaterials in solar cells and various structures for improving the performance of solar cells.
