Effect of CdSe thickness deposited by electrophoretic deposition for quantum-dot-sensitized solar cell
摘要: Cadmium selenide (CdSe) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles in chloroform were deposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) conducting glass-substrate by the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method at varying voltages and deposition times. Firstly, TiO2 nanoparticles were deposited on FTO conducting glass-substrate at 150 V for 30 s by EPD method. After that, CdSe was deposited on TiO2 layer at 100 V for 60 s, 90 s, and 120 s by EPD method. The CdSe/TiO2 films were characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). A complete quantum-dots-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) were assembled using polysulfide electrolyte and Cu2S counter electrodes. Polysulfide electrolyte was prepared with mixture of sulphur, sodium hydroxide and methanol/deionized water. The power conversion efficiency of 2% was achieved using a CdSe/TiO2 (100 V, 120 s) electrode, under simulated AM 1.5, 100 mW cm-2 illumination.

The Influence of Photoinduced Processes on a Quantum Dot Surface on the Electron Transfer Efficiency in TiO2 Nanoparticle/Quantum Dot Structures
摘要: The influence of photoinduced processes occurring on the surfaces of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots is considered in relation to the functional characteristics of hybrid TiO2 nanostructure/quantum dot systems. Preirradiation of quantum dots is shown to achieve a threefold increase in electron transfer efficiency within these structures. Photoinduced processes are found to impact both the efficiency of nonradiative phenomena in quantum dots and the electron transfer in the indicated systems.

A Method for Estimating the Functionality of TiO2/Quantum Dot Multilayer Hybrid Structures Based on the Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species
摘要: A new technique for estimating the efficiency of electron transfer from a CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) to TiO2 nanoparticles based on the generation of reactive oxygen species by hybrid structures is presented. It was demonstrated that in the formed multilayer hybrid structures of TiO2/QD, photoinduced electron transfer is realized with an efficiency of 26%.

Dynamic intermolecular interactions control adsorption from mixtures of natural organic matter and protein onto titanium dioxide nanoparticles
摘要: Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) will obtain macromolecular coatings in environmental systems, changing their subsequent interactions. The matrix complexity inherent in natural waters and wastewaters greatly complicates prediction of the corona formation. Here, we investigate corona formation on titanium dioxide (TiO2) NPs from mixtures of natural organic matter (NOM) and a protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), to thoroughly probe the role of mixture interactions in the adsorption process. Fundamentally different coronas were observed under different NP exposure conditions and time scales. In mixtures of NOM and protein, the corona composition was kinetically determined, and the species initially co-adsorbed but were ultimately limited to monolayers. On the contrary, sequential exposure of the NPs to pure solutions of NOM and protein resulted in extensive multilayer formation. The intermolecular complexation between NOM and BSA in solution and at the NP surface was the key mechanism controlling these distinctive adsorption behaviors, as determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and in situ attenuated total reflectance – Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy. Overall, this study demonstrates that dynamic intermolecular interactions and the history of the NP surface must be considered together to predict corona formation on NPs in complex environmental media.

Study of Photovoltaic Devices with Hybrid Active Layer
摘要: The aim of this work is to present the influences of composition of the material and manufacturing technology conditions of the organic photovoltaics devices (OPv) with the organic and hybrid bulk heterojunction on the active layers properties and cells performance. The layers were produced by using small molecular compounds: the metal-phthalocyanine (MePc) and perylene derivatives (PTCDA) and the titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles. Two kinds of metal phthalocyanines (NiPc, TiOPc) were used as donor material and pperylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) as an acceptor. The used manufacturing technique allowed to employ thin layers of materials in a fast deposition process. Bulk heterojunction was created by simultaneously applying the MePc:PTCDA materials during the evaporation of the components mixture. The research was based on the estimate of composition of bulk heterojunction, the examination of the surface morphology of the used layers and optical properties studies of the heterojunction and its implementation to photovoltaic architecture. The produced photovoltaic cells parameters were determined on the basis of current - voltage characteristics. The researches of structure of obtained layers were conducted by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The quantitative determination of surface topography by determining RMS and Ra coefficients were performed by atomic force microscopy (AFM). In order to determine the optical properties of the films the UV-Visible spectroscope have been utilized. Current - voltage characteristics were employed to determine the basic photovoltaic parameters using a dedicated device. The paper describes the influence of the individual components sharing the bulk heterojunction on its structure, optical properties and morphology of surface. In addition it allows for linking active layers properties with the parameters of the photovoltaic cells. The obtained results suggest the possibility of developing the utilized materials and technology in the further works on photovoltaic structures.

CO2 Adsorption Property of Amine-Modified Amorphous TiO2 Nanoparticles with a High Surface Area
摘要: Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies have attracted a great deal of attention as effective measures to prevent global warming. Adsorption methods using porous materials seem to have several advantages over the liquid absorption methods. In this study, we have developed a synthesis method of new amorphous titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles with a diameter of 3 nm, a high surface area of 617 m2/g and a large amount of OH groups. Next, the surface of the amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles was modified using ethylenediamine to examine whether CO2 adsorption increases. Amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles were successfully modified with ethylenediamine, which was used in excess due to the presence of a large amount of hydroxyl groups. The amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles modified with ethylenediamine show a higher CO2 adsorption capacity (65 cm3/g at 0 ?C, 100 kPa) than conventional TiO2 and mesoporous SiO2. We discuss the origin of the higher CO2 adsorption capacity in terms of the high specific surface area of the amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles and the modification with ethylenediamine on the surface of the amorphous TiO2 nanoparticles. The optimization of the amount of ethylenediamine bound on the particles increased the CO2 adsorption capacity without pore blocking.

Green Synthesis of High Temperature Stable Anatase Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles Using Gum Kondagogu: Characterization and Solar Driven Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Dye
摘要: The present study reports a green and sustainable method for the synthesis of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) from titanium oxysulfate solution using Kondagogu gum (Cochlospermum gossypium), a carbohydrate polymer, as the NPs formation agent. The synthesized TiO2 NPs were categorized by techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope- Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), UV-visible spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area and particle size analysis. Additionally, the photocatalytic actions of TiO2 NPs were assessed with regard to their ability to degrade an organic dye (methylene blue) from aqueous solution in the presence of solar light. Various parameters affecting the photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 NPs were examined, including catalyst loading, reaction time, pH value and calcination temperature of the aforementioned particles. This green synthesis method involving TiO2 NPs explores the advantages of inexpensive and non-toxic precursors, the TiO2 NPs themselves exhibiting excellent photocatalytic activity against dye molecules.
