title = "All-Inorganic Colloidal Quantum Dot Photovoltaics Employing Solution-Phase Halide Passivation",
abstract = "A new solution-phase halide passivation strategy to improve the electronic properties of colloidal quantum dot films is reported. We prove experimentally that the approach leads to an order-of-magnitude increase in mobility and a notable reduction in trap state density. We build solar cells having the highest efficiency (6.6%) reported using all-inorganic colloidal quantum dots. The improved photocurrent results from increased efficiency of collection of infrared-generated photocarriers. Copyright {\textcopyright} 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.",
