The medical community as a whole appears … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 9 Jul 2015 · 9,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyze the Absorption Properties and I-V Characterization of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell Using Ruthenium DyeAnees Ur Rehman, Farooq Aslam, Haseeb Ahmad KhanIn this study, Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC) has been fabricated using natural organic dye extracted from Ruthenium Dye and its I-V characterization and absorption properties have been analyzed. It is observed that the selected natural dye absorbed all visible light and supports electrons motion across the semiconductor interface. The dye acts as sensitizer because the titanium dioxide (TiO2) cannot … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2014 · 7,395 accessesView PDFCite
