Chromopore-linked conducting polymers attached to semiconductor surfaces: A strategy for development of dye-sensitized solar cells

Article Abstract:

The attachment of chromophores to a conducting polymer chain anchored to a semiconductor surface is a good strategy for development of dye-sensitized solar cells. This principle is illustrated by constructing a model system by bonding mercurochrome to poly(vinyl alcohol) films absorbed onto nanocrystallineTiO2 films.

A numerical model for charge transport and recombination in dye-sensitized solar cells

Article Abstract:

A numerical model is proposed that obtains the electrical output of dye-sensitized solar cells from microscopic parameters. The current-voltage curve, the dependence of the short-circuit current and the open-circuit voltage on the light intensity are determined within the assumptions of the model.
