The Bi 2 Se 3 films were prepared by thermal evaporation on different substrates (FTO, ITO and Glass). The structure and morphology are characterized by XRD and SEM. The optical band gap ( E g ) is 1.47 eV, 1.54 eV, and 1.59 eV, respectively. The I-V and C–V curves have been obtained by a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell system, and the results indicated the Bi 2 Se 3 film is n -type semiconductor. The transient photocurrent response of Bi 2 Se 3 /FTO and Bi 2 Se 3 /ITO were measured to evaluate the application potential of Bi 2 Se 3 films in solar cell. The above results indicated that the Bi 2 Se 3 films have advantages in the application of solar cells.
