This paper describes a solvothermal approach to remove the organic amine ligand on the surface of CuInS₂ quantum dots (QDs) and demonstrates improved device performance of ternary polymer-CuInS₂/TiO₂ solar cells. Surface treatment of the CuInS₂ QDs was carried out using different treatment methods, agents, and reaction times. Results showed that most of the amine ligands could be removed using hexanoic acid as the treatment agent by the solvothermal method in 16 h; the treated CuInS₂ QDs displayed an aggregation tendency and quenched the fluorescence of poly(2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene) (MEH-PPV) more effectively. As a result, MEH-PPV-CuInS₂/TiO₂ solar cells based on the treated CuInS₂ QDs showed much higher device performance than those containing pristine CuInS₂ QDs, achieving efficiency of 2.02% under AM1.5 illumination.
