  • Solar cell and method for preparation thereof
    Patent number: 8440908
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a dye sensitized solar cell comprising a semiconductor formed of a particulate metal oxide, a dye adsorbed onto the semiconductor wherein the semiconductor interface with the dye is formed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) of a semiconductor material onto the particulate metal oxide.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 22, 2008
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2013
    Assignee: Polymers CRC Ltd.
    Inventors: Gerardo Triani, Jonathan Andrew Campbell, Graeme Moad, Gavin Errol Collis, Peter John Evans, Robert Paul Burford, Attila Janos Mozer

  • Conducting Polymers With Porphyrin Cross-Linkers
    Publication number: 20070295398
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cross-linking monomer having the structure Q-(L)n-P-(L?)m;-Q?, where Q and Q? are polymerisable units, L and L? are linkers providing direct or indirect electronic communication between Q and P and between P and Q?, and P is an electrofunctional unit, and also to polymers prepared from such monomers. Q for example may be a heteroaromatic ring such as thiophene, furan and pyrrole. The electrofunctional group may be, for example, porphyrin, substituted porphyrin, phthalocyanine or substituted phthalocyanine. The invention also relates to an electrofunctional material including a base material and a cross-linked polymer such as described.
