  1. 1. Heteroleptic Copper (I) Complexes as Photosensitizers in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Angela Raffaella Pia Pizzichetti; [2019]
    Keywords : Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells; Chemical and Environmental Engineering; Photovoltaic; Copper I complexes;

    Abstract : Modern civilization highly depends on energy and finding alternative sources to fossil fuels becomes more and more necessary. The sun is the most abundant energy source available and exploiting it efficiently would result in a great environmental and economic breakthrough. READ MORE

    Abstract : Ruthenium complexes has been geometrically optimized with different combinations of basis sets. Using single point calculation, the Density of States and partial Density of States has been calculated. RuIII-OH2 experienced a shift towards higher binding energies. READ MORE

  3. 3. Synthesis of Ruthenium-based Water Oxidation Catalysts and Mechanistic Study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : YOSHIDA MOTOKI; [2015]
    Keywords : Ruthenium Complex; Water Oxidation Catalyst; Electrochemistry; Oxygen Evolution; Pourbaix Diagram;

    Abstract : Two series of new mononuclear ruthenium complexes with hydrophobic or hydrophilic ligands [Ru(bda)L2] and [Ru(pdc)L3] (H2bda = 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid; H2pdc = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid; L = pyridyl ligands) were synthesized and their electrochemical properties and catalytic activity toward water oxidation were examined. It was revealed that the hydrophobic ligands introduced to [Ru(bda)L2 ] improved the catalytic performance, ahnost twofold TON and TOF values were achieved compared to the [Ru(bda)] catalyst with hydrophilic ligands.
