Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC), introduced by O'Regan and Grätzel in 1991, are a low cost alternative to conventional silicon photovoltaic cells, the latter requiring extremely pure starting materials and sophisticated production procedures. DSC's, based ...
We report on small-scale experiments of simple, repeated asset markets in two risky securities and one risk-free security. As in large-scale experiments, steady convergence towards the CAPM is discovered, but the process is slower and convergence halts bef ...
Laser flash induced photocurrent transient measurements were used to study the electron transport in nanostructured TiO2 (anatase) thin film electrodes in contact with an electrolyte. The shape and the time domain for the current transients are dependent o ...
We present a novel approach to cover different substrates with thin light-sensitive layers that consist of org.-capped TiO2 nanorods (NRs). Such NR-based coatings exhibit an increasing initial hydrophobicity with increasing NR length, and they demonstrate ...
Perhaps the largest challenge for our global society is to find ways to replace the slowly but inevitably vanishing fossil fuel supplies by renewable resources and, at the same time, avoid negative effects from the current energy system on climate, environ ...
The solar to electrical power conversion efficiency for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) incorporating a solid-state organic hole-transporter can be over 5%. However, this is for devices significantly thinner than the optical depth of the active composite ...
Techniques of TiO2 film fabrication for dye-sensitized solar cells having a conversion efficiency of global air mass 1.5 (AM 1.5, 1000 W/m(2)) solar light to electric power over 10% are reported. Newly implemented fabrication technologies consist of pre-tr ...
Effective transverse piezoelectric coefficient e(31,f) has been measured on (100)/(001) sol-gel Pb(ZrXTi1-X) thin films with compositions between 30% and 45% Zr. A maximum value of 8.07 +/- 0.36 C/m(2) at 40% Zr is found. The influence of the poling field ...
