Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) are of interest because of their potential for low-cost solar energy conversion. Currently, the certified record efficiency of these solar cells is 11.1%, and measurements of their durability and stability suggest lifetime ...
Counter electrodes (CEs) of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) can be prepared with different materials and methods. This review covers recent research on CEs using platinum, graphite, activated carbon, carbon black, single-wall carbon nanotubes, poly( 3,4- ...
Two novel cyanine-fullerene dyads have been synthesized by means of the Prato reaction from the corresponding cyanine-aldehyde, N-methylglycine and C60. As well as a thorough characterization using MS-TOF, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR a ...
A new method for the prepn. of nanostructured TiO2 films, based on the compression of a TiO2 powder is presented, and its relevance for the prodn. of dye-sensitized solar cells is discussed. By applying a pressure (>200 kg cm-2) on a film of TiO2 powder, a ...
Techniques of TiO2 film fabrication for dye-sensitized solar cells having a conversion efficiency of global air mass 1.5 (AM 1.5, 1000 W/m(2)) solar light to electric power over 10% are reported. Newly implemented fabrication technologies consist of pre-tr ...
A high kinetics rate electrochemical cell in which at least one of the electrodes is composed of a mesostructural electroactive material is comprising a three-dimensional framework structure of mesoporous texture forming a bicontinuous junction of large sp ...
The electronic and mol. structures of an electrochem. reduced and oxidized triarylamine layer (((3-ethyl(p-N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl)amino)propyl-1-phosphonic acid) adsorbed on a nanocryst. TiO2 film have been studied. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) measu ...
Addn. of 4-tert-butylpyridine (4TBP) to redox electrolytes used in dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cells has a large effect on their performance. In an electrolyte contg. 0.7M LiI and 0.05M I2 in 3-methoxypropionitrile, addn. of 0.5M 4TBP gave an increase of the ...
The working electrode of a dye-sensitized photovoltaic fiber is constituted of a porous TiO2 coated titanium wire. The cohesion and adhesion of such a brittle oxide coating on the ductile metal substrate are identified as crucial factors in maintaining pho ...
Due to their high efficiencies and their potentially low production costs, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have attracted much attention during the last few years. The technology is based on a layer made of mesoscopic TiO2 film which significantly increa ...
