Since its commercial production in the early twentieth century, titanium dioxide (TiO2) has
been widely used as a pigment1 and in sunscreens, 2, 3 paints, 4 ointments, toothpaste, 5 …

Transition metal complexes with low lying excited states are finding increasing use as
photosensitizers. Major work horses are those derived from polypyridine complexes and …

Great attention is currently paid to the synthesis of polynuclear transition metal complexes
and the study of their photochemical, photophysical, and electrochemical properties. This …

A critical review of light-driven interfacial charge-transfer reactions of transition-metal
compounds anchored to mesoporous, nanocrystalline TiO2 (anatase) thin films is described …

During the past decade, interest in chemical reactions occurring at metal oxide-aqueous
solution interfaces has increased significantly because of their importance in a variety of …

We have developed novel coumarin dyes for use in dye-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO2
solar cells (DSSCs). The absorption spectra of these novel coumarin dyes are red-shifted …

Providing both an introduction and an up-to-date survey of the entire field, this text captivates
the reader with its clear style and inspiring, yet solid presentation. The significantly …

A photoelectrochemical cell utilizing flavonoid anthocyanin dyes extracted from blackberries,
along with colloidal TiO2 powder, is shown to convert sunlight to electrical power at an …

A brief review of the investigation of solar energy conversion and the development of dye-
sensitized thin-layer solar cells is presented, with the main focus on dyes, specially on d6 …

We have developed oligothiophene-containing coumarin dyes fully functionalized for dye-
sensitized nanocrystalline TiO2 solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs based on the dyes gave good …
