Introducing manganese complexes as redox mediators for dye-sensitized solar cells.
The abundance and low toxicity of manganese have led us to explore the application of manganese complexes as redox mediators for dye sensitized solar cells (DSCs), a promising solar energy conversion technology which mimics some of the key processes in photosynthesis during its operation. In this paper, we report the development of a DSC electrolyte based on the tris(acetylacetonato)manganese(i...
متن کاملCopper Bipyridyl Redox Mediators for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells with High Photovoltage.
Redox mediators play a major role determining the photocurrent and the photovoltage in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). To maintain the photocurrent, the reduction of oxidized dye by the redox mediator should be significantly faster than the electron back transfer between TiO2 and the oxidized dye. The driving force for dye regeneration with the redox mediator should be sufficiently low to pr...
متن کاملPolyoxometalate supported complexes as effective electron-transfer mediators in dye-sensitized solar cells.
Two Anderson-type heteropolyanion-supported copper phenanthroline redox couples have been successfully introduced into dye-sensitized solar cells, which can significantly increase the short-circuit photocurrent, open-circuit voltage and the conversion efficiency by 2.2 times, 26.8% and 3.93 times respectively, compared to the pristine copper phenanthroline redox couple.
متن کاملNeutral copper(I) dipyrrin complexes and their use as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells.
Heteroleptic neutral copper(I) dipyrrin complexes have been synthesised with the general formula [Cu(4,4'-(R)-6,6'-(CH3)-bipyridine)(dipyrrin)], R = CH3 or CO2Et, and H-dipyrrin is either 1,3,7,9-tetramethyldipyrromethene (HL1), 1,13-diphenyl-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL2), or 1,13-diphenyl-3,11-di(trifluoromethyl)-6,8-diisoindolemethene (HL3). Improved stability was observed across the series , ...
متن کاملApplication of azo dye as sensitizer in dye-sensitized solar cells
An azo dye used as photosensitizers in Dye-sensitized solar cells DSSCs. Azo dyes economically superior to organometallic dyes because they are color variation and cheap. The spectrophotometric evaluation of an azo dye in solution and on a TiO2 substrate show that the dye form J-aggregation on the nanostructured TiO2 substrate. Oxidation potential measurements for used azo dyes ensured an energ...
