Deprotonation of N3 adsorbed on TiO2 for high-performance dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs)†
Abstract
Chemical modification of a N3-adsorbed TiO2 photoelectrode with 1-methyl-3-phenylpropylamine enhanced the power conversion efficiency (η) by ca. 15% compared to DSSCs containing pristine N3 by increasing the short circuit current density (Jsc) and open circuit voltage (Voc).
