摘要: We describe the fastest dyeing of TiO2 photo-electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells reported to date ( 12 h using same dye mixture (η = 5.5%). Time-lapse photography has been used monitor ultra-fast co-sensitization. The data show significantly different uptake between passive and pump reflecting competitive sorption a Ru complex (N719) an organic (SQ1).
