چکیده

We describe a porphyrin dye-sensitised solar cell utilising a solid state electrolyte containing the I(-)/I(3)(-) redox couple, which yields a performance of 5.3% under moderate light intensity and 4.8% at full sun.

Ionic liquid electrolyte porphyrin dye sensitised solar cells.

Ionic liquid electrolytes based on a number of imidazolium, quaternary ammonium and phosphonium cations have been developed for porphyrin dye sensitised solar cells yielding efficiencies of up to 5.2% at 0.68 Sun.

Interrelationship between TiO2 nanoparticle size and kind/size of dyes in the mechanism and conversion efficiency of dye sensitized solar cells.

In order to provide a comprehensive investigation of TiO2 nanoparticle size in relation with different dye types in DSSCs, three sizes of TiO2 nanoparticles and two different dye types including a porphyrin dye (T2) and a ruthenium dye (N3) were synthesized. Steady state current-voltage (J-V) characteristics were investigated for the fabricated DSSCs and the results demonstrated that the optimu...

Amplification of light collection in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells via the antenna effect through supramolecular assembly.

This study demonstrates that the concept of molecular antenna is a relevant strategy to improve the power conversion efficiency of solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells by extending their spectral sensitivity over a broad region of the solar spectrum. In this work, we have associated a BODIPY antenna to a bi-chromophoric sensitizer made of a squaraine unit linked to a zinc porphyrin by axial l...

An iodine-free electrolyte based on ionic liquid polymers for all-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells.

An ionic liquid polymer, poly (1-alkyl-3-(acryloyloxy)hexylimidazolium iodide), was employed as an iodine-free electrolyte in all-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells with an overall conversion efficiency of 5.29% under AM 1.5 simulated solar light (100 mW cm(-2)) illumination.

Electrodeposited ZnO nanowires as photoelectrodes in solid-state organic dye-sensitized solar cells.

A new approach for developing solid-state dye-sensitised solar cells (DSSCs) on glass/ITO and plastic substrates (PEN/ITO) is presented in this manuscript. A two step electrodeposition technique has been employed to realize the ZnO photoelectrodes. First a ZnO thin film is deposited on the ITO substrate and subsequently on this buffer layer 650 nm long ZnO nanowires are grown. The different nan...
