Reducing charge recombination losses in solid state dye sensitized solar cells: the use of donor–acceptor sensitizer dyes

Abstract

Herein we report the application of supramolecular dyes to control charge recombination between photo-injected electrons and oxidized hole-transporting material, resulting in an enhancement in the performance of dye sensitized solar cell devices based upon such dyes.
