Thermochromic coatings for overheating protection of solar thermal collectors - Towards industrial implementation - Annual Report 2019

With the advent of a new generation of switchable absorber coatings, overheating and the resulting stagnation of solar thermal collectors – until recently a common problem even in central European latitudes – can be successfully overcome. Based on thermoch ...

Improving energy transfer efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cell by fine tuning of dye planarity

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

Two push-pull metal-free sensitizers with 5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives as electron-donating groups and 4-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-ylethynyl)benzoic acid (BTZ) as electron-withdrawing unit, denoted by SK201 and SK202, were synthesized ...

Electron-Affinity-Triggered Variations on the Optical and Electrical Properties of Dye Molecules Enabling Highly Efficient Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yuhang Liu, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Péter Kalman Péchy, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Yiming Cao, Yasemin Saygili, Weiwei Zhang, Marko Stojanovic

The synthesis, characterization, and photovoltaic performance of a series of indacenodithiophene (IDT)-based D--A organic dyes with varying electron-accepting units is presented. By control of the electron affinity, perfectly matching energy levels were ac ...

Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells on Quasi-mono Wafers

Christophe Ballif, Antoine Descoeudres, Matthieu Despeisse, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Loris Barraud, Jan Haschke, Raphaël Monnard, Brahim Aissa

We applied hydrogen passivation, gettering and a combination of both to quasi-mono (qm) wafer material to enhance its bulk lifetime and prepared silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells. We find that while our applied hydrogen passivation alone seems not t ...

11% efficiency solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells with copper(II/I) hole transport materials

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Fabrizio Giordano, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Jingshan Luo, Joël Teuscher, Norman Pellet, Yiming Cao, Amita Ummadisingu, Yasemin Saygili, Marina Freitag

Solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells currently suffer from issues such as inadequate nanopore filling, low conductivity and crystallization of hole-transport materials infiltrated in the mesoscopic TiO2 scaffolds, leading to low performances. Here we rep ...

Significance of pi-bridge contribution in pyrido[3,4-b]pyrazine featured D-A-pi-A organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fabrizio Giordano, Zhongjin Shen, Yelin Hu, Xiaoyu Zhang

The 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) pi-bridge is one of the most commonly used building blocks for sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). We investigated its influence on the molecular structure, the photophysical and electrochemical properti ...

Theoretical Study of Light Trapping in Nanostructured Thin Film Solar Cells Using Wavelength-Scale Silver Particles

Ali Dabirian

We propose and theoretically evaluate a plasmonic light trapping solution for thin film photovoltaic devices that comprises a monolayer or a submonolayer of wavelength-scale silver particles. We systematically study the effect of silver particle size using ...

Light trapping in hematite-coated transparent particles for solar fuel generation

Ali Dabirian

Hematite (alpha-Fe2O3), due to its abundance and low-cost, is an attractive compound for photoelectrochemical splitting of water to produce hydrogen. However, one major obstacle preventing hematite from achieving the target efficiencies comprises its signi ...
