Grätzel DSSC with new record efficiency

In this ‘HOT’ paper from EES, Michael Grätzel and colleagues investigate the use of platinum-free electrocatalysts in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). This new research has lead to a new record efficiency for an organic redox couple DSSC of 7.9%.

Read Grätzel’s latest paper:
