摘要
Dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical and solid-state solar cells are well known. A possible third alternative is a hybrid of both types where an extremely thin film of liquid is interposed between the dye-coated nanocrystalline semiconductor surface and a solid hole collector. To illustrate the principle a model system is constructed with graphite as the hole collector.
