2. 1. Ionic Liquid Electrolytes for Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells

   Author : Heléne Gamstedt; Lars A. Kloo; Michael Grätzel; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ionic liquid electrolytes; Photoelectrochemical solar cells; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

   Abstract : Potential electrolytes for dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical solar cells have been synthesized and their applicability has been investigated. Different experimental techniques were used in order to characterize the synthesized electrolytes, such as elemental analysis, electrospray ionisation/mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, dynamic viscosity measurements, as well as impedance, Raman and NMR spectroscopy.

4. 2. XDSC : Excitonic Dye Solar Cells

   Author : Eva Unger; Gerrit Boschloo; Tom J. Savenije; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hybrid solar cells; energy transfer; dye-sensitized solar cells; TiO2; small-molecular semiconductor; hole-transporting dye; Chemistry with specialization in Physical Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : Solar energy is the foremost power source of our planet. Driving photosynthesis on our planet for 3 billion years the energy stored in the form of fossil fuels also originates from the sun. Consumption of fossil fuels to generate energy is accompanied with CO2 emission which affects the earth's climate in a serious manner. READ MORE

5. 3. Recycling of CIGS solar cell waste materials

   Author : Anna Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrometallurgy; Pyrometallurgy; CIGS; Recycling; Solar cells;

   Abstract : The increased interest in solar power over the last few decades has led to a constant development of existing and new types of solar cells. One type of solar cell that is making advances on the global market is copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) thin film solar cells. READ MORE

6. 4. Liquid Redox Electrolytes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

   Author : Ze Yu; Lars Kloo; Md K Nazeeruddin; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dye-sensitized solar cells; electrolytes; ionic liquids; redox couples; additives;

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on liquid redox electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). A liquid redox electrolyte, as one of the key constituents in DSCs, typically consists of a redox mediator, additives and a solvent. READ MORE
