高效利用太阳能被认为是最有前途的可再生能源解决方案之一。在材料和配置上都付出了巨大的努力，以实现优化的高效电荷分离、运输和收集过程。具有可控形貌和维度的分层纳米结构以其高比表面积、可定制的拓扑结构和独特的光电特性而受到广泛关注。到目前为止，在光伏应用中使用分层纳米材料已经取得了各种进展。本文综述了近年来用于光伏太阳能电池的ZnO纳米结构的研究进展。讨论了三种典型的太阳能电池结构，即DSSC、QDSC和混合太阳能电池。强调了ZnO层次化纳米结构对整体性能的影响，阐明了高密度支化纳米结构在高效光吸附和转移方面的优势。最后对ZnO纳米材料太阳能电池的研究进展进行了总结和展望。
Highly efficient utilisation of solar energy is regarded as one of the most promising renewable energy solution. Enormous efforts have been dedicated to both the material and configuration to achieve an optimised efficient charge separation, transport and collection processes. Hierarchical nanostructures with controlled morphology and dimensionality have attracted enormous attention for their high specific surface area, tailored topology and distinct electro-optical properties. To date, various advances have been made using hierarchical nanomaterials for photovoltaic applications. Herein, recent advances in the ZnO hierarchical nanostructures for photovoltaic solar cells are reviewed. Three representative solar cell configurations, i.e., DSSC, QDSC, and hybrid solar cells, are discussed. The impact of the ZnO hierarchical nanostructure on the overall performance is highlighted to elucidate the advantages of the high-densely branched nanostructure in efficient light adsorption and transfer. The summary and outlook for the ZnO nanomaterial-based solar cells is provided at the end of the review.
