ELECTRON TRANSFER IN ELECTROSTATIC ASSEMBLY OF ORGANOMETALLIC CLUSTER CATIONS AND ?-EXPANDED CARBOXYLATE-CONTAINING PORPHYRINS

摘要

Current dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) involves the use of a dye anchored onto a conducting TiO2 nanoparticle to promote efficient photo-induced electron injection. The insolubility of the TiO2 nanoparticles renders the characterization of the electron transfer process difficult.
