Two org. dyes with the general structure donor-conjugated chain-acceptor (D-π-A) were studied as sensitizers for nanocryst. TiO2 solar cells. The electron donor and acceptor groups were pyrrolidine and cyano acrylic acid, resp. The conjugated chain of 2-cy ...
Nanostructured TiO2 films were modified by insertion with Al ions using an electrochem. process. After heat treatment these films were suitable as electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells. By a catechol adsorption test and with photoelectron spectroscopy , ...
A series of new hybrid organic-inorganic molecules were prepared either by grafting of aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) on silica nanoparticles followed by quaternarization of the nitrogen with ethyl, heptyl and isopropyl iodides or by grafting of N,N,N-t ...
Five ionic liqs. (ILs) Im+A-, where Im+ = 1-methyl-3-n-butyl-imidazolium, A- = I- (1), BF4- (2), SCN- (3), CF3CO2- (4), and CF3SO3- (5), were used in electrolytes for dye-sensitized monolithic solar cells. The properties of the electrolytes and various cha ...
The surface electronic and mol. structure of a new org. chromophore useful for dye-sensitized nanostructured solar cells was studied by electron spectroscopy. Initially the use of a simple mol. system contg. the polyene-diphenylaniline chromophore in a sol ...
The effect of RC attenuation was not correctly taken into account. This led to a misinterpretation of the photocurrent response data that was in Figure 3a on page 17717 and further discussion. Under operating conditions, electrons are accumulated throughou ...
Eleven novel donor acceptor π-conjugated (D-π-A) org. dyes were engineered and synthesized as sensitizers for the application in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The electron-donating moieties are substituted tetrahydroquinoline, and the electron-withdr ...
The electron transport in dye-sensitized solar cells with a MOCVD (metal org. vapor deposition)-grown ZnO nanorod array (ZnO-N) or a mesoporous film prepd. from ZnO colloids (ZnO-C) as the working electrode was compared. The electrodes were of similar thic ...
The transport and recombination of electrons in dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cells were studied by anal. of the current and voltage response to a small square-wave light-intensity modulation. Solar cells were studied under working conditions by using potentio ...
A series of allyl-functionalized imidazolium salts are reported, including 1-allyl-3-ethylimidazolium iodide and 1-allyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide, which have m.ps. close to room temp. and show typical properties of supercooled fluids if heated above thei ...
