Abstract
Every year there is a steady development of the solar power industry, supported by various countries around the world. In this regard, the task is to reduce the cost of production of photovoltaic converters and increase their efficiency. Against this background, more and more people are moving away from traditional silicon technologies in search of a solution to this problem. One of the promising areas for further development are quantum dots solar cells due to their unique properties, stability during operation and the possibility of their environmentally friendly production. The aim of the work is to study the current state of development of photovoltaic converters based on quantum dots. The field of research is solar power engineering. To solve this problem, various materials of domestic and foreign scientific publications on the subject of solar energy were systematized. Photovoltaic converters based on quantum dots and methods of their production are considered, forecast for their further promising use in solar energy is given.
