Towards Sustainable Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

CHIMIA, 2009
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) are an emerging technology for the conversion of solar photons to electrical energy. Typical DSCs are based upon ruthenium complexes which act as photosensitizers for a wide band-gap semiconductor such as ...
