More particularly, a silicon semiconductor layer in the solar cell is fabricated by using the composite thin film comprising the amorphous silicon and the nanocrystalline silicon, the composite thin film being formed by dispersing nanoparticles of the crystalline silicon in a liquid silicon precursor and modifying them.The solar cell of the present invention is manufactured by dispersing the crystalline silicon nanoparticles in the liquid silicon precursor, coating the dispersion on a substrate or printing the substrate with the dispersion, and heating the coated or printed substrate to modify the liquid silicon precursor into the amorphous silicon.According to the present invention, any expensive equipment requiring alternative complicated installations is not needed to form a composite thin film comprising both of amorphous silicon and crystalline silicon. In addition, it is possible to form a composite thin film comprising plural materials with different band gap energy which can remarkably improve conversion efficiency of a solar cell by using a liquid precursor and nanocrystalline particles in a solution process with low production cost.

    Abstract: Semiconductor carbon nanotubes functionalized by hydrogen and a method for fabricating the same, wherein the functional hydrogenated semiconductor carbon nanotubes have chemical bonds between carbon and hydrogen atoms. The semiconductor carbon nanotube fabricating method includes heating carbon nanotubes in a vacuum, dissociating hydrogen molecules in hydrogen gas into hydrogen atoms, and exposing the carbon nanotubes to the hydrogen gas to form chemical bonds between carbon atoms of the carbon nanotubes and the hydrogen atoms. The conversion of metallic carbon nanotubes into semiconductor nanotubes and of semiconductor nanotubes having a relatively narrow energy bandgap into semiconductor nanotubes having a relative wide energy bandgap can be achieved using the method. The functional hydrogenated semiconductor carbon nanotubes may be applied and used in, for example, electronic devices, optoelectronic devices, and energy storage.
