Stacked multijunction (tandem) solar cells have been prepared by mechanically stacking dye-sensitised solar cells (DSCs) and a GaAs/AlXGa(1-X)As graded solar cell (GGC) as the top and bottom cells, respectively. Three organic dyes with different absorption ...

This paper presents an overview of the research carried out by a European consortium with the aim to develop and test new and improved ways to realise dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC) with enhanced efficiencies and stabilities. Several new areas have been ...

Propionitrile electrolyte solutions mixed with sulfolane or with 1-ethyl 3-methyl imidazolium tetracyanoborate (ionic liquid) are optimized for Co(bpy)(3)(3+)/Co(bpy)(3)(2+)-tmediated DSCs working at low illumination intensity. Highly-active cathode cataly ...

The concept of a tandem hybrid concentrator solar module was demonstrated from a dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cell (DSSCs) and a silicon p-n junction solar cell. The test system employed DSSC and Si cells with indoor AM1.5G efficiencies of 9.1 and 18.1%, resp ...

Solar energy is a promising solution to global energy-related problems because it is clean, inexhaustible and readily available. However, the deployment of conventional photovoltaic cells based on silicon is still limited by cost, so alternative, more cost ...

A nanocrystalline TiO2 (anatase) nanosheet ex- posing mainly the (001) crystal faces was tested as photo- anode material in dye-sensitized solar cells. The nanosheets were prepared by hydrothermal growth in HF medium. Good-quality thin films were deposited ...

The high molar extinction coefficient heteroleptic ruthenium dye, NaRu(4,4'-bis(5-(hexylthio)thiophen-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine) (4-carboxylic acid-4'-carboxylate-2,2'-bipyridine) (NCS)(z), exhibits certified 5% electric power conversion efficiency at AM 1.5 solar irradiation (100 mWcm(-2)) in a solid-state dye-sensitized solar cell using 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis-(N,N-dipmethoxyphenylamine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene (spiro-MeOTAD) as the organic hole-transporting material. This demonstration elucidates a class of photovol

Solar cells that operate efficiently under indoor lighting are of great practical interest as they can serve as electric power sources for portable electronics and devices for wireless sensor networks or the Internet of Things. Here, we demonstrate a dye-s ...

An indoline dye (D205), the synthesis method of which is disclosed in this report, gave high-efficiency organic dye-sensitized solar cells (9.52%) using an anti-aggregation reagent (chenodeoxycholic acid). ...

Techniques of TiO2 film fabrication for dye-sensitized solar cells having a conversion efficiency of global air mass 1.5 (AM 1.5, 1000 W/m(2)) solar light to electric power over 10% are reported. Newly implemented fabrication technologies consist of pre-tr ...
