There has been intense interest and debate concerning the electron transfer rates within dye-sensitized nanostructured n-type semiconductors (such as TiO2). The motivation for this research has been the development of solar cells in which the first step is ...
Influence of processing parameters, such as autoclaving and firing temp., on the optical properties of nanocryst. anatase TiO2 film and on the process of electron injection from the dye fluorescein 27 to the as-prepd. films is studied. TEM and steady-state ...
Ultrafast spectroscopy was used to study the relaxation processes of charge carriers in ZnO nanocryst. thin films. A broad red-IR absorption band linked to shallowly trapped electrons was obsd. by spectroelectrochem. measurements. Femtosecond transient abs ...
Over the past fifteen years dye-sensitised nanocrystalline solar cells have been the subject of intense research and development efforts. These systems provide a technically and economically credible alternative to classical p-n junction solar cells, reach ...
Photoinduced electron transfer from the valence band of nanocryst. NiO, a p-type semiconductor, to an excited bound dye, Coumarin 343, and the subsequent recombination have been measured by femtosecond transient absorbance spectroscopy probing with white l ...
The main features of the characteristic impedance spectra of dye-sensitized solar cells are described in a wide range of potential conditions: from open to short circuit. An equivalent circuit model was proposed to describe the parameters of electron trans ...
The effect of electronic and nuclear factors on the dynamics of dye-to-semiconductor electron transfer was studied employing RuII(terpy)(NCS)3 sensitizers grafted onto transparent films made of titanium dioxide nanoparticles. Various approaches were strive ...
Dye-to-semiconductor electron transfer is the initial step in many processes where light is used for the storage of information (e. g. color photography) or converted into electricity as in dye-sensitized solar cells. In the latter, interfacial charge inje ...
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 ...
