Graphene nanoplatelets outperforming platinum as the electrocatalyst in co-bipyridine-mediated dye-sensitized solar cells.

TL;DR: Graphene nanoplatelets in the form of thin semitransparent films on F-doped SnO2 (FTO) exhibit high electrocatalytic activity for the Co(bpy)3(3+/2+) redox couple in acetonitrile electrolyte solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mesoscopic solar cells for electricity and hydrogen production from sunlight

Michael Grätzel
- 01 Jan 2005 - 
TL;DR: The quality of human life depends to a large degree on the availability of energy sources as mentioned in this paper and the present annual worldwide energy consumption has already attained a level of over 400 exajoules and is...
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of the Sensitizer Adsorption Mode on the Open-Circuit Potential of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

TL;DR: A combined experimental and theoretical study on the origin of the different open circuit potentials observed in dye-sensitized solar cells using Ru(II)-polypyridyl homoleptic and heteroleptic sensitizers is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclopentadithiophene Bridged Donor–Acceptor Dyes Achieve High Power Conversion Efficiencies in Dye‐Sensitized Solar Cells Based on the tris‐Cobalt Bipyridine Redox Couple

TL;DR: This work presents a new mesoporous composite material that can be used for dye-sensitized solar cells and its applications in photovoltaics and transport and performance research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diffusion engineering of ions and charge carriers for stable efficient perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: A nanostructured carbon layer is designed to suppress the diffusion of ions/molecules within perovskite solar cells, an important degradation process in the device, and this nanocarbon layer benefited the diffusionof electron charge carriers to enable a high-energy conversion efficiency.
