Samenvatting:
The charge transport properties of the dye-sensitized solar cells consistingof Ru(dcbpyH2)2(NCS)2-sensitized nanostructured TiO2 with either redox
electrolyte or CuSCN as hole conductor have been compared. The electron
transport time and the electron charge in the TiO2 varies in a similar
way with the incident light intensity for both hole conductors:
electron transport becomes faster and electron accumulation increases
with increasing light intensity. Electron transport in the CuSCN-based
cells is significantly faster than in electrolyte cells under
conditions where the accumulated charge is equal. An ultra-thin aluminum
oxide layer on the nanocrystalline titanium oxide has a beneficial
effect as it reduces the
recombination and increases the open-circuit potential.
