Photoacoustic and photoelectrochemical characterization of CdSe-sensitized TiO2 electrodes composed of nanotubes and nanowires

Photovoltaic Efficiencies on Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Assembled with Graphene-Linked TiO2Anode Films

“…19 IPCE is defined as the ratio of the number of electrons in the external circuit produced by an incident photon at a given wavelength. DSSCs that primarily respond to the wave- length of visible light were measured in the 300-800 nm region.…”

Comparison of catalytic activities for photocatalytic and sonocatalytic degradation of organic dye in the presence of ternary Fe3O4/ZnO/CuO magnetic heteregenous nanocatalyst

“…As a consequence the charge separation will be enhanced due to the transfer of electrons and holes in two or more different metal oxide nanoparticles. According to the literature, the heterostructure between a broad band gap metal oxide and a narrow band gap metal oxide has considerable as a promising method in this regard [6][7][8][9].…”

Ultrafast Electron and Hole Dynamics in CdSe Quantum Dot Sensitized Solar Cells

“…However, attempts to sensitize electrodes with multiple dyes have achieved only limited success to date. Narrow-band-gap semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), such as CdS, CdSe, PbS, and InAs, have also been the subject of considerable interest as promising candidates for replacing the sensitizer dyes in DSSCs (Vogel et al, 1990(Vogel et al, , 1994Toyoda et al, 1999Peter et al, 2002;Plass et al, 2002;Shen et al, 2004aShen et al, , 2004bShen et al, , 2006aShen et al, , 2006bShen et al, , 2008aShen et al, , 2008bShen et al, , 2010aShen et al, , 2010bYu et al, 2006;Robel et al, 2006;Niitsoo et al, 2006;Diguna, et al, 2007aDiguna, et al, , 2007bKamat, 2008Kamat, , 2010Gimenez et. al., 2009;Mora-Sero et al, 2009.…”
