An achievement of over 12 percent efficiency in an organic dye-sensitized solar cell

Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/c4cc02192d

Dye-sensitized solar cells fabricated by using a novel metal-free alkoxysilyl carbazole as a sensitizing dye and a Co^3+/2+-complex redox electrolyte exhibited light-to-electric energy conversion efficiencies of over 12% with open-circuit photovoltages higher than 1 V by applying a hierarchical multi-capping treatment to the photoanode. the Partner Organisations 2014.
