The fabrication process of triple-cation-halide organic inorganic perovskites must be tightly controlled to make high-efficiency solar cells. After precursor deposition, the amount of oxygen and moisture during the annealing process is important but not al ...

The formation of oxygen vacancies (Vö) in n-type semiconductors is a key strategy for improving the performance of metal-oxide-based photoanodes. Whereas Vö has traditionally been created by gas- or liquid-phase treatments, here we report a solid-state red ...

High power conversion efficiencies (PCE), low energypayback time(EPBT), and low manufacturing costs render perovskite solar cells(PSCs) competitive; however, a relatively low operational stabilityimpedes their large-scale deployment. In addition, state-of- ...

Coordination chemistry has been widely studied in lanthanide complexes, where organic ligands are used to chelate individual lanthanide ions, and the complexes are broadly used in analytical, biological, and clinical applications. Significant progress has ...

Considering the natural abundance, the optoelectronic properties, and the electricity production cost, iron pyrite (FeS2) has a strong appeal as a solar cell material. The maximum conversion efficiency of FeS2 solar cells demonstrated to date, however, is ...

Conjugated pi-spacers are used to improve the light harvesting properties of sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells. In several recent works, furan has outperformed other popular pi-spacers such as thiophene and phenyl. One of the best performing pheno ...

Pinch analysis and Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) have been extensively studied for optimization of industrial processes addressing heat recovery, utility selection and sizing. Analysis of renewable utility integration, such as solar thermal or ph ...

A fullerene derivative (alpha-bis-PCBM) is purified from an as-produced bis-phenyl-C-61-butyric acid methyl ester (bis-[60]PCBM) isomer mixture by preparative peak-recycling, high-performance liquid chromatography, and is employed as a templating agent for ...

The layered semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as MoS2, WS2, MoSe2, and WSe2, are promising light absorbers for solar energy conversion applications due to their superior optoelectronic properties and chemical stability, however s ...

Uncovering the precise effect of the conjugated polymer chain length on the semiconducting properties in thin-film devices is confounded by the step-growth polymerization techniques typically used. Here, we use preparatory size exclusion chromatography to ...

Surface recombination represents a handicap for high-efficiency solar cells. This is especially important for nanowire array solar cells, where the surface-to-volume ratio is greatly enhanced. Here, the effect of different passivation materials on the effe ...

Hybrid perovskites represent a new paradigm for photovoltaics, which have the potential to overcome the performance limits of current technologies and achieve low cost and high versatility. However, an efficiency drop is often observed within the first few ...

In the recent years, the heterojunction solar cells based on quantum dots (QDs) have attracted attention due to strong light absorbing characteristics and the size effect on the bandgap tuning. This paper reports on the kinetics of interfacial charge separ ...

Citrazinic acid is used as a convenient starting material for both tridentate 2,6-di(pyrazol-1-yl)-pyridine and tetradentate 6,6'-di(pyrazol-1-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine ligands containing carboxylic groups useful for further anchoring of sensitizer on TiO2 for d ...

The fundamental limits for the measurement of the efficiency of single nanowire solar cell devices are presented. We evaluate the effect of the substrate, light polarization, and existence of Mie resonances in the absorption of the solar spectrum for nanow ...

Three unsymmetrical squaraine dyes JK-64, JK-65, and JK-64Hx, containing a bulky spirobifluorene or hexyloxyphenyl unit are designed and synthesized. These sensitizers, when anchored onto a TiO2 surface, exhibit decreased aggregation as well as enhanced un ...

The energy transition from the ground state to the first excited singlet of four organic dye candidates to be used as sensitizers in solar cells, D5, D7, D9, and D11, has been computationally explored and compared to experimental results with TDDFT (B3LYP, ...

Dye-to-semiconductor electron transfer is the initial step in many processes where light is used for the storage of information (e. g. color photography) or converted into electricity as in dye-sensitized solar cells. In the latter, interfacial charge inje ...
