A novel family of room temperature ionic liquids, N,N-diethyl-N′,N′-dipropyl-N′′-hexyl-N′′-methylguanidinium iodide (SGI) and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-N′′,N′′-dipentylguanidinium tricyanomethanide (SGTM) were designed and synthesized. Due to the strong charge ...
The cond. and solar cell performance of metal iodide-doped trialkylsulfonium iodides and polyiodides were studied as electrolytes in dye-sensitized nanocryst. solar cells (DNSCs). Nine different metal-iodide-contg. (R2R'S)I with addnl. iodine provided over ...
A direct-bonded GaAs/InGaAs solar cell is demonstrated. The direct-bonded interconnect between subcells of this two-junction cell enables monolithic interconnection without threading dislocations and planar defects that typically arise during lattice-misma ...
The main features of the characteristic impedance spectra of dye-sensitized solar cells are described in a wide range of potential conditions: from open to short circuit. An equivalent circuit model was proposed to describe the parameters of electron trans ...
Nanocryst. TiO2 films, surface modified with Al3+, were manufd. by depositing a TiO2 suspension contg. small amts. of Al nitrate or Al chloride onto conducting glass substrates, followed by drying, compression, and finally heating to 530°. Electrodes prepd ...
Photoinduced electron transfer from the valence band of nanocryst. NiO, a p-type semiconductor, to an excited bound dye, Coumarin 343, and the subsequent recombination have been measured by femtosecond transient absorbance spectroscopy probing with white l ...
Due to the limiting amount of fossil fuel available and to the continuous growth of the world energy consumption, it becomes important to find alternative energy sources. Hydrogen produced by the photoelectrolysis of water is a perfect candidate as a clean ...
By deliberately causing degrdn. of components in a dye-sensitized solar cell the authors have studied failure mechanisms of such cells. The dye, bis(tetrabutylammonium) cis-bis(thiocyanato)bis(2,2'-bipyridine-4-carboxylic acid, 4'-carboxylate)ruthenium(II) ...
A new heteroleptic polypyridyl ruthenium complex (see Figure) with a high molar extinction coefficient has been synthesized. The complex is demonstrated to be a highly efficient, stable sensitizer for nanocrystalline dye-sensitized solar cells. For a newly ...
Potential new electrolytes for dye-sensitized nanocryst. solar cells (DNSCs) of Graetzel type based on trialkylsulfonium iodides were studied. Room temp. molten salts of (Et2MeS)I, (Bu2MeS)I, and (Bu2EtS)I, with iodine in low concns., revealed good conduct ...
