• Adamantyl Side Chains as Anti-Aggregating Moieties in Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells 

      Almenningen, David Moe; Haga, Brita Susanne; Hansen, Henrik Erring; Buene, Audun Formo; Hoff, Bård Helge; Gautun, Odd Reidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Designing and evaluating novel dye concepts is crucial for the development of the field of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In our recent report, the novel concept of tethering the anti-aggregation additive chenodeoxycholic ...
    • Effect of seven different terthiophene π-spacers on dye performance in dye-sensitized solar cells 

      Almenningen, David Moe; Hansen, Henrik Erring; Buene, Audun Formo; Hoff, Bård Helge; Gautun, Odd Reidar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      To ensure high photocurrents from dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC), it is important that the dye absorbs as much of the energy from the sunlight as possible. To achieve a wide absorption and cover larger parts of the solar ...
    • Effect of thiophene-based π-spacers on N-arylphenothiazine dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells 

      Almenningen, David Moe; Hansen, Henrik Erring; Vold, Martin Furru; Buene, Audun Formo; Venkatraman, Vishwesh; Sunde, Svein; Hoff, Bård Helge; Gautun, Odd Reidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      To study the effect of π-spacers on dye performance in DSSC, five novel phenothiazine dyes have been prepared where the number of successive thiophenes in the π-spacer was increased from zero to four. Additionally, a dye ...
    • Synthetic Efforts to Investigate the Effect of Planarizing the Triarylamine Geometry in Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells 

      Almenningen, David Moe; Engh, Veslemøy Minge; Strømsodd, Eivind Andreas; Hansen, Henrik Erring; Buene, Audun Formo; Hoff, Bård Helge; Gautun, Odd Reidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The geometry of a dye for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) has a major impact on its optical and electronic properties. The dye structure also dictates the packing properties and how well the dye insulates the metal–oxide ...
