“…158 Different lead free glass compositions have been experimented for sealing since lead contaminates the platinum based counter electrode and is toxic in nature. A glass frit free from lead has been studied by Lee et al 159 and it has been observed that the electrolyte system was reactive with the glass. The concept of microfluidic sealing was introduced to DSSCs recently by Lamberti et al 160 In case of microfluidic sealing, DSSCs were sealed mechanically and the durability was found to be enhanced.…”

Laser sealing with glass frits appears a promising technology for sealing various electronic devices (e.g., solar cells, displays) due to its several advantages. The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship between the composition of glasses and their laser-heating conditions. To allow glass to be sealed using laser heating, CuO was added to two different glass systems, in different amounts. The optical absorptivity of the glass samples was related directly to their CuO content. The laser-heating temperature and the CuO content exhibited a proportional relationship. Furthermore, the heating temperature increased linearly with the laser power used. From these results, we could determine the appropriate laser-heating conditions and CuO content for sealing electronic devices using laser-sealing technology.

“…Semiconductor photocatalysis has attracted increasing attention for solar energy harvest just like dye sensitized solar cells [1][2][3][4] and photocatalytic water splitting [1,5], and environmental remediation just like photocatalytic decomposition of pollutants in water and removal of toxic gas in the air [6]. Among these semiconductors, the oxides of titanium (Ti), bismuth (Bi), zinc (Zn) and tin (Sn) are the preferable materials for the photocatalytic processes [7][8][9][10].…”

Spinel MBi 2 O 4 (M = Cu, Zn) were synthesized by a special sol-gel method, and we report the photocatalytic activity of novel photocatalyst MBi 2 O 4 under visible light irradiation. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition of these photocatalysts was confirmed by SEM-EDS spectrum and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results indicated that the chemical formulas of the samples are CuBi 2 O 4 and ZnBi 2 O 4 , which was no report before. All of them exhibited high photocatalytic activity for the degradation of industrial dyes, the 2 h degradation values of ZnBi 2 O 4 and CuBi 2 O 4 for brilliant red K-2G are 91.5 and 72.6 %, and the 2 h degradation values for acid red B are 99.8 and 89.8 %, respectively. These characteristics make the photocatalysts to be promising candidates for the photocatalytic degradation of dyes.
