Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

TL;DR: Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) offer the possibilities to design solar cells with a large flexibility in shape, color, and transparency as mentioned in this paper, and many DSC research groups have been established around the world.
Journal ArticleDOI

A molecular ruthenium catalyst with water-oxidation activity comparable to that of photosystem II

TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to close that 'two orders of magnitude' gap in the efficiency of the water oxidation with a rationally designed molecular catalyst [Ru(bda)(isoq)(2)] (H(2)bda = 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid; isoq = isoquinoline).
Journal ArticleDOI

Design of Organic Dyes and Cobalt Polypyridine Redox Mediators for High-Efficiency Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

TL;DR: Dye-sensitized solar cells with cobalt-based mediators with efficiencies surpassing the record for DSCs with iodide-free electrolytes were developed by selecting a suitable combination of a cobalt polypyridine complex and an organic sensitizer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nickel–vanadium monolayer double hydroxide for efficient electrochemical water oxidation

TL;DR: Mechanistic studies indicate that the nickel–vanadium-layered double hydroxides can provide high intrinsic catalytic activity, mainly due to enhanced conductivity, facile electron transfer and abundant active sites, and may expand the scope of cost-effective electrocatalysts for water splitting.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel organic chromophore for dye-sensitized nanostructured solar cells

TL;DR: A novel and efficient polyene-diphenylaniline dye for dye-sensitized solar cells has been synthesized and is designed for future use also in solid state devices, with triarylamine based hole conductors.
