Preparation and Characterization of High Purity Al（2-x）Mg（x＋y）Ti（1-y）O（5-0.5x-y） Solid Solution

A small amount of mineralizer MgO was added into Al2TiO5 synthesized from the sludge of aluminum factory to form Al（2-x）Mg（x＋y）Ti（1-y）O（5-0.5x-y） solid solution and inhibit the decomposition of Al2TiO5 solid solution.

A fast approach to optimize dye loading of photoanode via ultrasonic technique for highly efficient dye-sensitized solar cells

A distinctive method is proposed by simply utilizing ultrasonic technique in TiO_2 electrode fabrication in order to improve the optoelectronic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs). Dye molecules are at random and single molecular state in the ultrasonic field and the ultrasonic wave favors the diffusion and adsorption processes of dye molecules. As a result, the introduction of ultrasonic technique at room temperature leads to faster and more well-distributed dye adsorption on TiO_2 as well as higher cell efficiency than regular deposition, thus the fabrication time is markedly reduced. It is found that the device based on40 kHz ultrasonic(within 1 h) with N719 exhibits a Vocof 789 mV, Jscof 14.94 mA/cm~2 and fill factor(FF)of 69.3, yielding power conversion efficiency(PCE) of 8.16%, which is higher than device regularly dyed for12 h(PCE = 8.06%). In addition, the DSSC devices obtain the best efficiency(PCE = 8.68%) when the ultrasonic deposition time increases to 2.5 h. The DSSCs fabricated via ultrasonic technique presents more dye loading,larger photocurrent, less charge recombination and higher photovoltage. The charge extraction and electron impedance spectroscopy(EIS) were performed to understand the influence of ultrasonic technique on the electron recombination and performance of DSSCs.     

High molecular weight syndiotacticity-rich poly(vinyl alcohol) gel in aging process

The properties of the aged gels of high molecular weight syndiotacticity-rich poly(vinyl alcohol)s (HMW S-PVAs) with different syndiotactic diad (s-diad) contents were investigated. HMW S-PVA gels with s-diad content of 61.5% and 58.2% showed the rapid increases of the syneresis and the turbidity from the early stage of aging time, which is ascribable to the phase separation, while that with s-diad content of 55.7% did not. From the morphological study, it was confirmed that the phase separation in HMW S-PVA gel with s-diad content of 61.5% occurred without the liquid-liquid phase separation in sol state, whereas both the liquid-liquid phase separation in sol state and the subsequent phase separation in gel state occurred in the case of HMW S-PVA gel with s-diad content of 58.2%. On the other hand, HMW S-PVA gel with s-diad content of 55.7% showed neither the liquid-liquid phase separation in sol state nor the phase separation in gel state in the long period of time. It was also confirmed from wide angle X-ray diffractogram that the crystallization was accompanied by the phase separation in gel state in the aging process of PVA gel. However, the crystallization was hindered by the fast network formation at the initial stage of time. Later the syndiotacticity promoted the crystallization. The tensile modulus of HMW S-PVA gel with higher syndiotacticity increased more significantly with time. Received: 2 December 1999/Accepted: 12 July 2000

Effect of lithium iodide addition on poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(vinylidene fluoride) polymer-blend electrolyte for dye-sensitized nanocrystalline solar cell

The effect of lithium iodide concentration on the conduction behavior of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PEO-PVDF) polymer-blend electrolyte and the corresponding performance of the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) were studied. The conduction behavior of these electrolytes was investigated with varying LiI concentration (10-60 wt % in polymer blend) by impedance spectroscopy. A "polymer-in-salt" like conduction behavior has been observed in the high salt concentration region. The transition from "salt-in-polymer" to "polymer-in-salt" conduction behavior happened at the salt content of 23.4 wt %, which is much lower than 50 wt % as generally reported. The electrolyte shows the highest ionic conductivity (approximately 10(-3) S cm(-1)) at the salt concentration above 23.4 wt %. From the evaluation of salt effect on the performances of corresponding DSSC, we find that increasing LiI concentration leads to increased short-circuit photocurrent density (Jsc) caused by enhanced I3(-) diffusion up to an LiI content of 28.9 wt %. Above this limitation, the Jsc decreases as a result of increased charge recombination caused by the further increased I3(-) concentration. The open-circuit voltage (Voc) increases gradually with LiI concentration owing to the enhanced I(-) content in DSSC. The optimized conversion efficiency is obtained at a salt content of 28.9 wt % in the "polymer-in-salt" region, with high ionic conductivity (1.06 x 10(-3) S cm(-1)). Based on these facts, we suggest that the changes of conduction behavior and the changes of I3(-) and I(-) concentrations in the electrolytes contribute to the final performance variation of the corresponding DSSC with varying LiI concentration.
