Anthocyanins and betalains as light-harvesting pigments for dye-sensitized solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Jun Ho Yum, Alessandro Sinopoli

We present the photoelectrochemical properties of dye-sensitized solar cells using natural pigments containing betalains and anthocyanins as sensitizers. The dyes extracted from grape, mulberry, blackberry, red Sicilian orange, Sicilian prickly pear, eggpl ...

Design and Development of Functionalized Cyclometalated Ruthenium Chromophores for Light-Harvesting Applications

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Aswani Yella, Thomas Baumgartner

The syntheses and the electrochemical spectroscopic properties of a suite of asymmetrical bistridentate cyclometalated Ru(II) complexes bearing terminal triphenylamine (TPA) substituents are reported. These complexes, which contain structural design elemen ...
