Light Harvesting and Water Splitting in Dye-Sensitized Solar CellsFuture solar energy conversion systems (solar cells and solar water splitting catalysts) must be both efficient and inexpensive in order to be competitive with fossil fuels. The dual challenge of high efficiency and low cost presents some interesting technical problems. Inexpensive polycrystalline semiconductor devices and photocatalysts are generally inefficient because ...
