It was found that the organic additives added had an important influenced on the formation mechanism of Cu 2O films and lead to different microstructures and optical properties. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). Based on the FESEM micrographs the grain size of film prepared by polyethylene glycol has smaller grain of about 83 nm with irregular shape. The highest optical absorbance film was obtained by the addition of polyethylene glycol which improved optical properties due to fine crystalline grain and thus decreases the scattering. The prepared cuprous oxide thin films were used as working electrodes for photovoltaic cell of ITO/Cu 2O/PVC-LiClO 4/graphite and tested using current-voltage characteristic under light illumination and also in the dark. 2013-06-27T03:50:18Z 2013-06-27T03:50:18Z 2012 Article Advanced Materials Research, vol. 501, 2012, pages 247-251 1022-6680 http://www.scientific.net/AMR.501.247 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/26261 en Trans Tech Publications Inc.
