Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) have achieved impressive conversion efficiencies for solar energy of over 11% with an electrolyte that contains triiodide/iodide as a redox couple. Although triiodide/iodide redox couples work efficiently in DSCs, they suf ...
Addn. of 4-tert-butylpyridine (4TBP) to redox electrolytes used in dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cells has a large effect on their performance. In an electrolyte contg. 0.7M LiI and 0.05M I2 in 3-methoxypropionitrile, addn. of 0.5M 4TBP gave an increase of the ...
A new method for the prepn. of nanostructured TiO2 films, based on the compression of a TiO2 powder is presented, and its relevance for the prodn. of dye-sensitized solar cells is discussed. By applying a pressure (>200 kg cm-2) on a film of TiO2 powder, a ...
A series of novel metal-free org. dyes TC301-TC310 with relatively high HOMO levels were synthesized and applied in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) based on electrolytes that contain Br-/Br3- and I-/I3-. The effects of additive Li+ ions and the HOMO leve ...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) based on two novel carbazole dyes and a Br-/Br3- redox mediator in dry CH3CN solns. as electrolytes yielded a Voc of 1.156 V and a η value of 3.68% and a Voc of 0.939 V and a η value of 5.22% under simulated AM 1.5, resp. ...
Polypyridyl Co complexes with different substituents were applied as redox mediators in p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSCs), consisting of mesoporous NiO sensitized with a perylenemonoimide-naphthalenediimide (PMI-NDI) dyad. The photocurrent and pho ...
The transport and interfacial transfer of electrons in dye-sensitized solar cells utilizing the Co(dbbip)(2) (dbbip = 2,6-bis(l'-butylbenzimidazol-2'-yl)pyridine) redox couple as an alternative to the conventional I-3(-)/l(-) couple have been investigated ...
Due to their high efficiencies and their potentially low production costs, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have attracted much attention during the last few years. The technology is based on a layer made of mesoscopic TiO2 film which significantly increa ...
An org. redox couple (McMT-/BMT) was used in dye-sensitized solar cells. Based on a low-cost org. dye, TH305, an efficiency of 4.0% was achieved under simulated sunlight (100 mW/cm2). Photoelectrochem. measurements provided insight into the difference betw ...
The photoelectrochem. behaviors of dye-sensitized nanoporous TiO2 solar cells are studied under influences of light intensity, redox couple concn., temp., different cations and water in the nonaq. soln. The value of the ideality factor of dyed nanoporous T ...
