Low temperature dye-sensitized solar cells based on conformal thin zinc oxide overlayer on mesoporous insulating template by atomic layer deposition

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Aravind Kumar Chandiran, Mojtaba Abdi Jalebi

Low temperature processing of Dye-sensitized Solar Cells (DSCs) is essential to enable commercialization with low cost plastic substrates and diminish the overall manufacturing cost. We report a low temperature processing route for photoanodes where thin Z ...

Sub-Nanometer Conformal TiO2 Blocking Layer for High Efficiency Solid-State Perovskite Absorber Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Peng Gao, Aswani Yella, Aravind Kumar Chandiran, Matthew Thomas Mayer

A mere 2 nm conformal titanium dioxide overlayer coated by atomic layer deposition is shown to act as a blocking layer for high-efficiency solid-state perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3) absorber-based solar cells. Surpassing the existing multilayer passivation, this ...

Quantum-Confined ZnO Nanoshell Photoanodes for Mesoscopic Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Chenyi Yi, Aswani Yella, Aravind Kumar Chandiran, Mojtaba Abdi Jalebi

We present a photoanode for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) based on ZnO nanoshell deposited by atomic layer deposition at 150°C, on a mesoporous insulating template. An ultrathin layer of ZnO between 3 and 6 nm, which exhibits quantum confinement effect, ...

Effects of Si and Y in structural development of (Al,Cr,Si/Y)OxN1 (-) (x) thin films deposited by magnetron sputtering

Alireza Karimi, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Hossein Najafi

Silicon (Si) and yttrium (Y) are believed to have a strong influence on functional properties of oxynitrides due to their effects in the growth process and incorporation in solid solution phases. It is worthwhile noting that the presence of these elements ...

Coupling of narrow and wide band-gap semiconductors on uniform films active in bacterial disinfection under low intensity visible light: Implications of the interfacial charge transfer (IFCT)

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines

This study reports the design, preparation, testing and surface characterization of uniform films deposited by sputtering Ag and Ta on non-heat resistant polyester to evaluate the Escherichia coil inactivation by TaON, TaN/Ag, Ag and TaON/Ag polyester. Co- ...

Growth of TiO2/Cu films by HiPIMS for accelerated bacterial loss of viability

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Oualid Baghriche

This study shows the first complete report on ultrathin TiO2/Cu nano-particulate films sputtered by highly ionized pulsed plasma magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) leading to fast bacterial loss of viability. The Cu- and the TiO2/Cu sputtered films induced comp ...

Effect of diamond surface orientation on the thermal boundary conductance between diamond and aluminum

Christian Monachon, Ludger Weber

[100] and [111] oriented diamond substrates were treated using Ar:H and Ar:O plasma treatments, and 1:1 HNO3:H2SO4 heated at 200 ̊C. Subsequent to these treatments, an aluminum layer was either evaporated or sputte- red on the substrates. The Thermal Bound ...
