Doping and energy band modulation of nanoporous electrodes for enhancing power conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Alwani Imanah Rafieh

This work report, for the first time, the co-doping of mesoporous TiO2 with Cd2+ and La3+ cations for improved performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Cd2+ ions modify the TiO2 lattice interstitially and lower the band gap enabling better electr ...
