چکیده

The ruthenium-containing sensitizing dye N719 grafted on TiO2 nanoparticles was investigated by solid-state NMR. The carbon resonances are assigned by means of (13)C cross-polarized dipolar dephasing experiments. DFT calculations of the carbon magnetic shielding tensors accurately describe the changes in chemical shifts observed upon grafting onto a titania surface via one or two carboxylic functions in the plane defined by the two isothiocyanate groups.

Ruthenium nanoparticles inside porous [Zn4O(bdc)3] by hydrogenolysis of adsorbed [Ru(cod)(cot)]: a solid-state reference system for surfactant-stabilized ruthenium colloids.

The gas-phase loading of [Zn4O(bdc)3] (MOF-5; bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) with the volatile compound [Ru(cod)(cot)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, cot = 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene) was followed by solid-state (13)C magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. Subsequent hydrogenolysis of the adsorbed complex inside the porous structure of MOF-5 at 3 bar and 150 degrees C was performed, yielding ruth...

Parameters influencing the efficiency of electron injection in dye-sensitized solar cells.

In this paper we focus upon the electron injection dynamics in complete nanocrystalline titanium dioxide dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) employing the ruthenium bipyridyl sensitizer dye N719. Electron injection dynamics and quantum yields are studied by time-resolved single photon counting, and the results are correlated with device performance. In typical DSSC devices, electron injection ki...

Photoinduced Interfacial Electron Injection Dynamics in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells under Photovoltaic Operating Conditions.

We report a pump-probe spectroscopy study of electron injection rates in dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) devices. We examine the case of working devices employing an N719 ruthenium sensitizer and an iodide electrolyte. Electron injection is found to occur mainly on a sub-100 fs time scale, followed by a slower component with a lifetime of 26.9 ps, in accordance with previous reports on model s...

Investigation of the surface chemistry of phosphine-stabilized ruthenium nanoparticles--an advanced solid-state NMR study.

(31)P-(13)C REDOR NMR measurements allowed a reasonable approximation of distances between stabilizing ligands and carbon monoxide (CO) molecules on the surface of phosphine-stabilized ruthenium nanoparticles (RuNPs). The studied systems are RuNPs in the size range of 1-2 nm stabilized with 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) or triphenylphosphine (PPh3) and exposed to a CO atmosphere. This ...

Photocurrent enhancement by surface plasmon resonance of silver nanoparticles in highly porous dye-sensitized solar cells.

Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) by silver nanoparticles that are photochemically incorporated into an electrode-supported TiO(2) nanoparticulate framework enhances the extinction of a subsequently adsorbed dye (the ruthenium-containing molecule, N719). The enhancement arises from both an increase in the dye's effective absorption cross section and a modest increase in the framework s...
