Weiwei Zhang,Weiwei Zhang,Yongzhen Wu,Hee Won Bahng,Yiming Cao,Chenyi Yi,Yasemin Saygili,Jingshan Luo,Yuhang Liu,Ladislav Kavan,Jacques-E. Moser,Anders Hagfeldt,He Tian,Shaik M. Zakeeruddin,Weihong Zhu,Michael Grätzel +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive control of voltage loss in excitonic type solar cells through efficacious engineering of the sensitizer and redox mediator is reported, making a breakthrough in the power conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrathin Buffer Layers of SnO2 by Atomic Layer Deposition: Perfect Blocking Function and Thermal Stability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out a thorough characterization of the nature of these ultrathin electron selective layers of SnO2 and found that they are amorphous and perfectly pinhole free for thicknesses down to 2 nm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemistry and dye-sensitized solar cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed dye-sensitized solar cells from the viewpoint of electrochemical preparation of cell components and electrochemical properties and characterization, as well as the specific features of this technology outline new perspectives for the conversion of solar light to electricity and fuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes functionalized by carboxylic groups: Activation of TiO2 (anatase) and phosphate olivines (LiMnPO4; LiFePO4) for electrochemical Li-storage
Ladislav Kavan,Revathi Bacsa,Meltem Tunckol,Philippe Serp,Shaik M. Zakeeruddin,Florian Le Formal,Markéta Zukalová,Michael Graetzel +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a composite of TiO2 with non-functionalized nanotubes demonstrates simple superposition of the behavior of pure components, while the composite with functionalized Nanotubes shows unique faradaic pseudocapacitance which is specific for this composite only.
Journal ArticleDOI
