The aim of this work was to develop new, organic dyes, capable of harvesting photons in the red to near-IR region of the spectrum. A series of squaraine and tricarbocyanine dyes were produced and characterised and their optical and redox properties studied ...
We report a new class of molecular insulators that electronically passivate the surface of nanocrystalline titania films for high performance dye sensitized solar cells (DSC). Using electrical impedance measurements we demonstrate that co-adsorption of din ...
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 ...
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 ...
We present a study of the kinetics of electron injection in ruthenium(II) cis-(2,2‘-bipyridyl-4,4‘-dicarboxylate)2(NCS)2-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO2 films as a function of electrical potential applied to the TiO2 film and as a function of the compositi ...
We report on the effect of substituting the two tetrabutyl ammonium counter ions of the standard N719 dye by sodium ions on the performance and stability of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The disodium analogue of N719 in conjunction with a non-volatile ...
