Abstract:

Device optimization and ultrafast absorption spectroscopic investigations on the role of semiconducting polymer as hole-transport layer in solid-state dye sensitized solar cells suggest their dual role of dye-regeneration and light-antenna assisting in improved photoconversion-efficiencies.
