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 ...
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 ...
One promising application of semiconductor nanostructures in the field of photovoltaics might be quantum dot solar concentrators. Quantum dot containing nanocomposite thin films are synthesized at EPFL-LESO by a low cost sol-gel process. In order to study ...
A direct-bonded GaAs/InGaAs solar cell is demonstrated. The direct-bonded interconnect between subcells of this two-junction cell enables monolithic interconnection without threading dislocations and planar defects that typically arise during lattice-misma ...
The dye solar cell, is a novel photoelectrochemical solar cell presenting unique advantages, as the use of low cost materials and the potential simplicity of manufacturing. However, a liquid electrolyte is actually required for the transport of the photoge ...
During the past five years, we have developed in our laboratory a new type of solar cell that is based on a photoelectrochemical process. The light absorption is performed by a monolayer of dye (i.e., a Ruthenium complex) that is adsorbed chemically at the ...
