Photoinduced mol. rearrangements are important in daily events essential for life such as visual perception and photo-protection of light harvesting complexes in plants. In this study we demonstrate that similar photorearrangements appear in an analogous t ...
We propose a passive factor, autocatalytic activity of some semiconductors (SnO2, WO3), for the loss of efficiency in dye-sensitized solar cells. On one hand, in the photoanode, SnO2 (or WO3) functions as a semiconductor to collect the photoelectrons that ...
Metal-free org. dyes with a core phenoxazine chromophore have been synthesized and tested as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells. Overall conversion efficiencies of 6.03-7.40% were reached under std. AM 1.5 G illumination at a light intensity of 100 ...
We have measured the binding coefficients of iodine to three dyes used in Dye Sensitised Solar Cells (DSSCs). Binding coefficients are quantified via the effect of iodine binding on the UV-vis spectrum of the dye. From iodine titration curves of dye sensit ...
A perylene sensitizer, ID176, was recently reported which performs much better in solid state dye-sensitized solar cells than in those using liq. electrolytes with iodide/tri-iodide as the redox couple. Here, a characterization is presented of the sensitiz ...
The energy loss in dye-sensitized solar cells calcd. from the energy difference between the lowest electronic transition of the dye and the obtained open-circuit voltage is often 1 eV or even more. To minimize this loss, it is important to accurately det. ...
An energy conversion efficiency of up to 5.24% has been attained, under AM 1.5 G illumination for a new dye-sensitized solar cell using TH305, as a low cost org. dye, ((CH3)4N)2S/((CH3)4N)2S2, as an org. electrolyte and CoS as counter electrode. ...
Different molecular layers on TiO2 were prepared by using the p-dimethylaniline triphenylamine based organic dye, D29, together with the coadsorbents decylphosphonic acid (DPA), dineohexyl bis(3,3-dimethylbutyl)phosphinic acid (DINHOP), and chenodeoxycholi ...
This thesis presents two applications of 2,2'-bipyridine (bipy) derivatives, the first involves their use as stabilizers for nanoparticle (NP) catalysts and the second is concerned with the use of bipy ligands for ruthenium dye molecules applied in dye sen ...
We have carried out theor. investigation aiming at modeling the assessment of mechanisms of photoinduced processes in a recent p-type org. metal-free dye derived from the triphenylamine (P-1) structure. In the P-1 system, one uses the triphenylamine moiety ...
