Abstract:
The world is actively pursuing renewable energy resources to combat environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Solar energy is the most abundant, continuously available form of renewable energy, and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are being explored as an alternative to traditional silicon-based solar cells due to their low cost of materials, ease of production, and efficiency. The photoanode is a crucial component in DSSCs, and th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
