Photoinduced charge separation in dye-sensitized films of smooth and nanocrystalline TiO2

Charge Photogeneration and Transport in AgBiS₂ Nanocrystal Films for Photovoltaics

Solution-processed AgBiS₂ nanocrystal films are a promising material for nontoxic, earth-abundant solar cells. While solar cells with good device efficiency are demonstrated, so far, hardly anything is known about charge generation, transport, and recombination processes in these films. Here, a photoinduced time-resolved microwave...

Interplay between Charge Carrier Mobility, Exciton Diffusion, Crystal Packing, and Charge Separation in Perylene Diimide-Based Heterojunctions

Two of the key parameters that characterize the usefulness of organic semiconductors for organic or hybrid organic/inorganic solar cells are the mobility of charges and the diffusion length of excitons. Both parameters are strongly related to the supramolecular organization in the material. In this work we have investigated the relation...
