Quaternary semiconductor Cu2ZnSnSe4 (CZTSe) is a very promising alternative to semiconductors based on indium (In) and gallium (Ga) as solar absorber material due to its direct band gap, inherent high absorption coefficient (> 10(4) cm(-1)) and abundance o ...
We have performed extensive density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) studies of the Hubbard model on a honeycomb ladder. The band structure (with Hubbard U = 0) exhibits an unusual quadratic band touching at half-filling, which is associated with a quan ...
Mesoscopic sensitized solar cells are one of the most promising third-generation photovoltaic technologies. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), imitating the photosynthesis of green plants, were the first photovoltaic devices to utilize a mesoscopic heteroj ...
We report the synthesis of atomically monodisperse thiol-protected silver nanoclusters Ag-44(SR)(30), (SR = 5-mercapto-2-nitrobenzoic acid) in which the product nanocluster is highly stable in contrast to previous preparation methods. The method is on ...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC) are a new class of molecular photovoltaics that mimics the natural photosynthesis, for the direct conversion of sunlight into electricity. A typical DSC is a sandwich of a dye sensitized nanoparticle TiO2 film and a catalys ...
Dielectric membranes with exceptional mechanical and optical properties present one of the most promising platforms in quantum optomechanics. The performance of stressed silicon nitride nanomembranes as mechanical resonators notoriously depends on how thei ...
Transient absorption spectroscopy on subpicosecond to second time scales is used to investigate photogenerated charge carrier recombination in Si-doped nanostructured hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) photoanodes as a function of applied bias. For unbiased hematite, ...
The relaxation dynamics of the dye D35 was characterized by transient absorption spectroscopy in acetonitrile and on TiO2 and ZrO2 thin films. In acetonitrile, upon photoexcitation of the dye via the S0 → S1 transition, ultrafast solvation dynamics with su ...
The hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (CH3NH3) PbI3 may find application in next generation solid-state sensitised solar cells. Although this material and related perovskites were discovered many decades ago, questions remain concerning their diverse str ...
The present work demonstrates that tuning the donor density of protective TiO2 layers on a photocathode has dramatic consequences for electronic conduction through TiO2 with implications for the stabilization of oxidation-sensitive catalysts on the surface ...
