  • Publication number: 20130247978
    Abstract: It is disclosed that a photo-electrode of a dye-sensitized solar cell comprising faceted anatase-type titania nanoparticles which adequate for fabricating a photo-electrode of a dye-sensitized solar cell which is efficient and longlasting and a fabrication method thereof. The titania nanoparticles can provide high photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell with help of fast electron mobility due to its high crystallinity and can reduce process time required for adsorbing the dye molecules on the surface of the titania nanoparticles. By modifying surface characteristics of the titania nanoparticles, it is allowed for dye molecules to be easily adsorbed on the surface of the titania nanoparticles and the life span of the dye molecules adsorbed on it is expanded with help of reduced photo-degradation rate of them at service conditions.

  • Patent number: 6178596
    Abstract: An apparatus that accurately adjusts the angle of the back of a seat that prevents the twist caused by an external impact to a vehicle to mitigate the risk of injury. The apparatus includes turning pieces, each of which are mounted to supporting brackets that are fixed to both ends of a seating portion and back of the seat. The turning pieces are connected on a connecting shaft and are turned by means of an actuating lever. The apparatus for adjusting the angle of the back includes a concave portion in an arc formed on one surface of a turning piece connected to the back of the turning pieces on the connecting shaft. A guiding protrusion having an upper end in a cylindrical form on the connecting shaft such that it is guided in the concave portion by surface contact on one surface of the turning piece connected to the seating portion of the turning pieces.
