Title: Plasmonic dye-sensitized solar cells using core-shell metal-insulator nanoparticles. Author: Brown MD, Suteewong T, Kumar RS, D'Innocenzo V, Petrozza A, Lee MM, Wiesner U, Snaith HJ. Journal: Nano Lett; 2011 Feb 09; 11(2):438-45. PubMed ID: 21194204. Abstract: We present an investigation into incorporating core-shell Au-SiO(2) nanoparticles into dye-sensitized solar cells. We demonstrate plasmon-enhanced light absorption, photocurrent, and efficiency for both iodide/triiodide electrolyte based and solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells. Our spectroscopic investigation indicates that plasmon-enhanced photocarrier generation competes well with plasmons oscillation damping with in the first tens of femtoseconds following light absorption.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
