Zinc oxide (ZnO) is recognized as one of the most attractive metal oxides because of its direct wide band gap (3.37 eV) and large exciton binding energy (60 meV), which make it promising for various applications in solar cells, gas sensors, photocatalysis and so on. Here, we report a facile synthesis to grow well-aligned ZnO nanorod arrays on SnO2: F (FTO) glass substrates without the ZnO seed layer using a Galvanic-cell-based method at low temperature (<100°C). CdS quantum dot thin films were then deposited on the nanorod arrays in turn by an effective successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) process to form a ZnO/CdS core-shell structure electrode. Structural, morphological and optical properties of the ZnO/CdS nanorod heterojunctions were investigated. The results indicate that CdS quantum dot thin films were uniformly deposited on the ZnO nanorods and the thickness of the CdS shell can be controlled by varying the number of the adsorption and reaction cycles. The number of quantum dots layers affects on photovoltaic performance of the ZnO/CdS core-shell nanorod arrays has been investigated as photoanodes in quantum dots sensitized solar cells.
