For efficient conversion of light into useful energy sources, it is very important to study and describe the first steps of primary charge-transfer process in natural structures and artificial devices. The time scale of ...

The rational design of new materials as prototype systems for organic solar cells remains challenging. Perylene diimide has emerged as a promising material to replace fullerene derivatives because of its synthetic flexibility, ...

We present a method based on a time-dependent self-consistent density functional tight-binding (TD-DFTB) approach, able to predict the quantum efficiency of the photoinjection process in a dye-TiO2 complex from a fully ...

The electronic absorption charge transfer bands in a series of para-substituted benzalketones are analyzed in order to stablish the role of the electron-donor substituent as well as the electronic properties of the molecular ...

Passive Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs) are a versatile tool for neutron studies as has been shown long ago and several good quality materials are commercially available. They are useful for charged particle ...

BiVO4 is an important semiconductor material that can be applied as a photoanode in several electrochemical systems, using the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum as an excitation source to charge carrier ...
