Following nature's example, this approach has the goal to find a \u003ci\u003ebiomimetic self-assembling dye\u003c\/i\u003e, whose aggregates can mimic the natural light-harvesting system of special photosynthetic active bacteria. The thesis investigates methods to control the self-assembly such that suitable dye aggregates are formed with high internal order and size-confinement.The dye aggregates can be implemented into a new type of \u003ci\u003esolar cells\u003c\/i\u003e, designed to combine the advantages of \u003ci\u003ehybrid solar cells\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003esolid-state dye-sensitized solar cells\u003c\/i\u003e (ss-DSSCs): \u003ci\u003edye aggregate solar cells (DASCs).\u003c\/i\u003e This book describes the construction and first tests of a prototype for DASCs on the basis of the investigated dye aggregates. The described approach has the advantage that it will enable to build up a light-harvesting system fully synthetically in large scale in order to realize low-cost, light-weight and environmentally friendly solar cells - a worthwhile goal towards the exploitation of clean energy from sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45277033267351,"sku":"9783319342856","price":7277.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783319342856.webp?v=1769287301","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/biomimetic-dye-aggregate-solar-cells-9783319342856","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
