    Abstract : Fossil fuels have greatly improved human living standards and saved countless lives. However, today, their continued use threatens human survival, as CO2 levels rise at an unprecedented pace to levels never seen during human existenceon earth. READ MORE

  2. 2. Photoelectrochemical studies of dye-sensitized solar cells using organic dyes

    Author : Tannia Marinado; Anders Hagfeldt; Katoh Ryuzi; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; additive; charge recombination; coadsorbent; conduction band shift; dye-sensitized; electron lifetime; electron-transfer; organic dye; photoelectrochemical; photovoltaic; sensitizer; semiconductor; solar cell; solar cell efficiency; titanium dioxide; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) is a promising efficient low-cost molecular photovoltaic device. One of the key components in DSCs is the dye, as it is responsible for the capture of sunlight. State-of-the-art DSC devices, based on ruthenium dyes, show record efficiencies of 10-12 %. READ MORE

  3. 3. Alternative Energy Harvesting and Conversion Systems Based on Nanostructured Heterostructures

    Author : Mojtaba Gilzad Kohan; Alberto Vomiero; Andrea Li Bassi; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; light harvesting; solar supercapacitors; energy conversion; Photovoltaic; energy storage; metal oxide semiconductors; Experimentell fysik; Experimental Physics;

    Abstract : Conversion and storage of the solar radiation into applicable forms of energy, using ubiquitous materials is of central importance that quests several disciplinary fields in both applied technology and fundamental science. Harnessing the solar energy received by the earth has the potential to replace the current sources of energy and it is imperative for sustainable development. READ MORE
