Reducing charge recombination losses in solid state dye sensitized solar cells: the use of donor–acceptor sensitizer dyes

Samantha Handa, Helga Wietasch, Mukundan Thelakkat, James R. Durrant and Saif A. Haque


Herein we report the application of supramolecular dyes to control charge recombination between photo-injected electrons and oxidized hole-transporting material, resulting in an enhancement in the performance of dye sensitized solar cell devices based upon such dyes.
