This supramolecular gel electrolyte system was prepared by using N,N?-1,5-pentanediylbis-dodecanamide and 4-(Boc-aminomethyl)pyridine as co-gelator. Furthermore, the morphologies of the two-component supramolecular gel electrolyte and single-component gel electrolyte were observed by the polarized optical light microscopy, and the charge transport property of the two-component supramolecular gel electrolyte and the kinetic processes of the electron transport/recombination were investigated by the intensity-modulated photocurrent spectroscopy/intensity-modulated photovoltage spectroscopy(IMPS/IMVS). The polarized optical microscopy(POM) revealed that the single-component gel electrolyte was formed as the rod-like fibers, whereas the fibers changed to branched structure in the two-component supramolecular gel electrolyte. Moreover, comparing with the single-component gel electrolyte based QS-DSSC, the electron transport is faster and the electron recombination at the Ti O2/electrolyte interface is slower in the two-component supramolecular gel electrolyte based QSDSSC. Consequently, an efficiency of 7.04% was obtained by the two-component supramolecular gel electrolyte based QSDSSC, which is higher than that of the single-component gel electrolyte based QS-DSSC(6.59%).展开更多

Optical analysis based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) is performed with experiments to evaluate the effect of the interaction between the Ag clusters and incident light on light absorption in polymer solar cell. Ag clusters modify the light wave vector and the electromagnetic field inside the device is redistributed and enhanced. As a result, polymer solar cells achieve an overall increase in absorption, short-circuit current densitv, and power conversion efficiency.展开更多

文摘TiO2 nanocrystalline porous films consisting of binary particles mixture (mean diameters of 12 and 100 nm) are capable of increasing the light absorption due to the possession of large specific surface area and light scattering property. The simultaneous reduction of the film thickness leads to a decrease of the recombination loss during electron transport and an increase of the photocurrent efficiency.
