摘要
Near-IR dye sensitized solar cells are very interesting due to their potential applications in panchromatic cells, semi-transparent windows and in tandem cells. In this work we show the utilization of axially anchored Si-naphthalocyanine dye in the spectral sensitization of TiO2 nanostructured photoelectrodes. We report the first successful evaluation of a naphthalocyanine in the production of sensitized photocurrent with maximum incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE) at lambda similar to 790 nm.
