Zinc oxide (ZnO) is the closest alternative to TiO 2 as the semiconductor material in a dye-
sensitized solar cell (DSSC). This is to be attributed to the facts that both TiO 2 and ZnO have …

At the end of last century, the possibility to use devices based on molecular components for
the construction of a robust large-scale solar electricity production facility seemed utopic. But …

Abstract One-dimensional (1D) ZnO nanostructures have been studied intensively and
extensively over the last decade not only for their remarkable chemical and physical …

Abstract Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are among the materials that have been
consistently developed in the field of nanomaterials in recent years, and have become …

Dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on organic dyes adsorbed on oxide
semiconductor electrodes, such as TiO2, ZnO, or NiO, which have emerged as a new …

The most efficient dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have had essentially the same
configuration (nanoparticle TiO2 sensitized with [Ru (4, 4′-dicarboxy-2, 2′-bipyridine) 2 …

This work is a brief account of the most recent developments observed in the application of
ZnO nanostructured materials in excitonic solar cells (organic, hybrid and dye sensitized …

We introduce high surface area ZnO nanotube photoanodes templated by anodic aluminum
oxide for use in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Atomic layer deposition is utilized to coat …

A new variety of CdS/NiO core-shell pn heterojunction is synthesized by in-situ chemically
depositing NiO shell on single-crystal CdS nanorods for the first time. With this method, the …

Several forms of thin-film solar cells are being examined as alternatives to silicon-solar cells-
one of the most promising technologies is the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC), with proven …
