  • Patent number: 10147554
    Abstract: Provided is an energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell having a simple structure. An energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell of the present invention has a photoelectrode and a charge storage electrode on the same surface of a conductive substrate such that the photoelectrode and the charge storage electrode act as one electrode. Hence, the energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell comprises two electrodes: the above-described one electrode and a counter electrode covered with a catalyst, thus having a simple structure.

  • Patent number: 8891023
    Abstract: A display device includes: a monitor and receiving set having a video signal receiving section, a display section, an image quality control section, a first control signal transceiver, and a first control section; and a control and transmission set having a television broadcast receiving section, a video signal input section, a video signal transmitting section, a second control signal transceiver, a key input section, and a second control section. The Power consumption of a first radio transmission path formed by the video signal transmitting section and the video signal receiving section is larger than that of a second radio transmission path formed by the first and second control signal transceivers. A control signal for a user interface is communicated by the first and second control signal transceivers. Only the second radio transmission path of the first and second radio transmission paths is communicable in a standby state.
