Photovoltaic (PV) technologies attract a lot of attention as a result of the increasing energy demand and environmental concerns stemming from the conventional energy resources. Accordingly, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) values of various solar ene ...

The recombination of injected electrons with oxidized redox species and regeneration behavior of copper redox mediators are investigated for four copper complexes, [Cu(dmby)2]2+/1+ (dmby = 6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′- bipyridine), [Cu(tmby)2]2+/1+ (tmby = 4,4′,6,6′ ...

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 bac ...

The synthesis, characterization, and photovoltaic performance of a series of indacenodithiophene (IDT)-based D--A organic dyes with varying electron-accepting units is presented. By control of the electron affinity, perfectly matching energy levels were ac ...

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have attracted a substantial interest in the last 30 years for the conversion of solar power to electricity. An important component is the redox mediator effecting the transport of charge between the photoelectrode and th ...

Copper redox mediators can be employed in dye sensitized solar cells (DSCs) both as liquid electrolytes or as solid state hole transport materials (HTMs). The solid state devices that employ copper complex HTMs can be simply obtained by solvent evaporation ...

Two new metal-free organic sensitizers, L156 and L224, were designed, synthesized, and characterized for application in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The structures of the dyes contain a triphenylamine (TPA) segment and 4-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4- ...

Photoelectrochemical approach to solar energy conversion demands a kinetic optimization of various light-induced electron transfer processes. Of great importance are the redox mediator systems accomplishing the electron transfer processes at the semiconduc ...

In this study, a new mechanism for doping of spiro-MeOTAD by Zn(TFSI)(2) is revealed, which is completely different from the mechanism induced by LiTFSI. The oxidation of spiro-MeOTAD is facilitated by complexation between the zinc cation and tert-butylpyr ...
