Dye Sensitization of Nanocrystalline Titanium Dioxide with Osmium and Ruthenium Polypyridyl Complexes

TL;DR: In this article, a series of osmium polypyridine dyes with various ground state reduction potentials has been synthesized, purified, characterized and utilized to sensitize nanoporous titanium dioxide electrodes to solar radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of Covalently Attached Polymer Overlayers on Si(111) Surfaces Using Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization Methods

TL;DR: In this article, a method for growing uniform, covalently attached polymer onto crystalline Si(111) surfaces was described, where the surface-bound chlorine was replaced by a terminal olefin using a Grignard reaction using a ruthenium ring-opening metathesis polymerization catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stable Solar-Driven Water Oxidation to O2(g) by Ni-Oxide-Coated Silicon Photoanodes.

TL;DR: The stabilization of np(+)-Si(100) and n-Si(111) photoanodes for over 1200 h of continuous light-driven evolution of O2(g) in 1.0 M KOH(aq) by an earth-abundant, optically transparent, electrocatalytic, stable, conducting nickel oxide layer is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulations of the irradiation and temperature dependence of the efficiency of tandem photoelectrochemical water-splitting systems†

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical device physics model for the semiconducting light absorbers in combination with a multi-physics device model was used to evaluate the variation in system efficiency due to hourly and seasonal variations in solar irradiation as well as due to variation in the isothermal system temperature.
