ZnO@SnO2 engineered composite photoanodes for dye sensitized solar cells
Layered multi-oxide concept was applied for fabrication of photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells based on ZnO and SnO2, capitalizing on the beneficial properties of each oxide. The effect of different combinations of ZnO@SnO2 layers was investigated, aimed at exploiting the high carrier mobility provided by the ZnO and the higher stability under UV irradiation pledged by SnO2. Bi-oxide pho...
متن کاملPreparation of TiO2 nanotube/nanoparticle composite particles and their applications in dye-sensitized solar cells
Efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells [DSSCs] was enhanced by combining the use of TiO2 nanotubes [TNTs] and nanoparticles. TNTs were fabricated by a sol-gel method, and TiO2 powders were produced through an alkali hydrothermal transformation. DSSCs were constructed using TNTs and TiO2 nanoparticles at various weight percentages. TNTs and TiO2 nanoparticles were coated onto FTO glass by the ...
متن کاملCovalent modification of photoanodes for stable dye-sensitized solar cells.
This paper describes the surface modification of TiO2 with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) followed by covalent attachment of Ru-based N719 dye molecules to TiO2 through an amide linkage for use as photoanodes (PAs) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) confirms the surface chemistry between the TiO2 and dye. ...
متن کاملGraphene-Based Materials for Photoanodes in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
This article reviews the research on the use of graphene and related materials in the photoanode of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Graphene-based materials, such as pristine graphene, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide, have properties attractive for various components of the DSSC photoanode. We first provide a brief introduction to graphene properties and analyze requirements for ...
متن کاملMorphology-controllable 1D-3D nanostructured TiO2 bilayer photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Morphology-controlled bilayer TiO(2) nanostructures consisting of one-dimensional (1D) nanowire bottom arrays and a three-dimensional (3D) dendritic microsphere top layer were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method. These novel 1D-3D bilayer photoanodes demonstrated the highest energy conversion efficiency of 7.2% for rutile TiO(2) dye-sensitized solar cells to date, with TiCl(4) post-t...
