Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) constitute a novel class of hybrid organic-inorganic solar cells. At the heart of the device is a mesoporous film of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles, which are coated with a monolayer of dye sensitive to the visible ...
The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) challenges conventional photovoltaics with its potential for low-cost prodn. and its flexibility in terms of color and design. Transient absorption spectroscopy is widely used to unravel the working mechanism of DSCs. A ...
A series of novel metal-free org. dyes TC301-TC310 with relatively high HOMO levels were synthesized and applied in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) based on electrolytes that contain Br-/Br3- and I-/I3-. The effects of additive Li+ ions and the HOMO leve ...
Electron transport in dye-sensitized solar cells with varying mesoporous TiO2 film thicknesses was investigated using exptl. and computational methods. More specifically, photocurrent transients resulting from small-amplitude square-wave modulation of the ...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) with nanotubular TiO2 electrodes of varying thicknesses are compared to DSCs based on conventional nanoparticulate electrodes. Despite the higher degree of order in one-dimensional nanotubular electrodes, electron transpor ...
A fully conjugated unsymmetrical dimeric squaraine dye was synthesized. The synthetic key step for this dye, a selective Knoevenagel type condensation of end groups to the core moiety, allows the incorporation of a carboxylic acid function essentially for ...
Hierarchical or one-dimensional architectures are among the most exciting developments in material science these recent years We present a nanostructured TiO2 assembly combining these two concepts and resembling a forest composed of individual, high aspect ...
Following former Studies, the donor-acceptor combinations of -NH2-substituted porphyrin donor and the acceptors C, D, E, F, H and G, those of -OH-, -CH3- and -Ph-substituted porphyrins as well as porphine donors and the acceptors E, G. and H, and those of ...
We investigate electron and hole dynamics upon photon excitation in dye-sensitized solar cells, using a recently developed method based on real-time evolution of electronic states through time-dependent density functional theory. The systems we considered ...
We report a systematic density functional theory (DFT) computational investigation of Ru(II) sensitizer/TiO2 systems relevant to dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Focusing on the prototypical N719 and the recently introduced YE05 sensitizers, and conside ...
