摘要
A photoelectrochemical study of a tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II)-C-60 donor-acceptor dyad adsorbed on nanocrystalline semiconductor SnO2 electrodes has been carried out. The results show that the incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency of dyad-based photoelectrochemical cells is similar to10%.
