Phenylfluorone and alizarin as metal-free sensitizers in dye sensitized solar cells
The alizarin and phenylfluorone metal-free dyes were adsorbed on the surface of TiO2 nanoparticles constituting mesoporous coating of the photoanode, and acted as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). Due to adsorption, the light absorption was extended to 600 nm and light harvesting efficiency exceeded 65 %. The chemical state of the surface of TiO2 nanoparticles was investigated before and after sensitization by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), showing that Ti-Ti bonds dominate and continuous crystalline structure is present up to the surface. The positions of bands measured by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was studied in the context of changes linked to the adsorption process. Better photovoltaic parameters for phenylfluorone are consistent with lower internal resistance of the cells determined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Ageing of the photocells and introduction of a back reflective layer improved their performance.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
