摘要
A primitive version of a ruthenium complex [Ru(bpy)(3)(2+)] was employed for the first time as a new conceptual "single-component redox shuttle'' for dye-sensitized solar cells. This single shuttle led to a large enhancement of the open-circuit photovoltage (V-OC) to similar to 940 mV relative to that of conventional iodine-based shuttle and greatly increased the efficiency of the solar-to-electric energy conversion at lower illumination levels by a factor of ca. 5.6.
