Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The focus of this research has been on the development of organic photovoltaics, specifically, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs have drawn a lot of attention owing to their potential product diversity, which originates from device features, such as their light-weight and vivid appearance. On the other hand, there remains some issues in terms of light-to-electricity conversion efficiency and device stability. We have established low-temperature metal cluster-based synthesis of high-performance titania electrode materials. Also, we have developed solid-state DSSCs modified with conductive polymers instead of using liquid electrolytes. Our solid-state devices can be fabricated through materials interface engineering without using vacuum process.
