Abstract

The preparation of a new bilayer nanoporous wide band gap semiconductor electrode and its application for solar cells are reported. This new electrode consists of an inner nanoporous TiO 2 matrix covered with a thin layer of ca. 2−3 nm Nb 2 O 5 . The results presented in this study show that this Nb 2 O 5 layer forms an inherent energy barrier at the electrode−electrolyte interface. This barrier reduces the recombination rate of the photoinjected electrons with their counter holes. A comparison of two similar dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) that differ only in their nanoporous electrodes shows that the solar cells made from the new electrode are superior to the standard cells with respect to all parameters. This superiority measured with many cells results in a 35% increase of the overall conversion efficiency from 3.6 to 5.0%. Optimization of the coating process and the characterization of the coating effects are described.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
