Enhanced photovoltaic performance with co-sensitization of a ruthenium(ii) sensitizer and an organic dye in dye-sensitized solar cells
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Co-sensitization is demonstrated to be an effective technique to enhance the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells, where an efficiency of 9.23% is achieved by mixing N3 and RK-1 dyes. The assembled solar cells are ...
Copper oxide nanoparticles in an epoxy network: Microstructure, chain confinement and mechanical behaviour
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Copper oxide nanoparticles (nCOPs) having octahedral morphology, synthesized through hydrazine reduction reaction were employed to formulate an epoxy based novel nanocomposite. The synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles ...
Enhanced photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells using TiO2-graphene microplatelets hybrid photoanode
(
IEEE Electron Devices Society
, 2016 , Article)
Hybrid photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were prepared by simple addition of graphene (GR) microplatelets to TiO 2 nanoparticulate paste. Transmission electron microscopy was used to confirm the presence ...
A polysulfobetaine hydrogel for immobilization of a glucose-binding protein
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
A hydrogel based on sulfobetaine methacrylate monomer N-(methacryloyloxyethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium betaine and N,N-bis(methacryloyloxyethyl)-N-methyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium betaine used as a crosslinker ...
Correlating structure and electronic band-edge properties in organolead halide perovskites nanoparticles
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
After having emerged as primary contenders in the race for highly efficient optoelectronics materials, organolead halide perovskites (OHLP) are now being investigated in the nanoscale regime as promising building blocks ...
Carbonyl iron coated with a sulfobetaine moiety as a biocompatible system and the magnetorheological performance of its silicone oil suspensions
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, surface modification of carbonyl iron (CI) particles with sulfobetaine moieties (SBE) was performed by the silanization of activated CI to form stable CI-SBE particles. The modification led to a significant ...
Surface functionalization of natural lignin isolated from: Aloe barbadensis Miller biomass by atom transfer radical polymerization for enhanced anticancer efficacy
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Lignin (LIG), one of the major natural polymers in the biomass is widely used for various industrial and biomedical applications, mainly in its modified form of grafted lignin. The present study focuses on the isolation ...
A Non-Reciprocal Autosomal Translocation 64,XX, t(4;10)(q21;p15) in an Arabian Mare with Repeated Early Embryonic Loss
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Contents: Balanced autosomal translocations are a known cause for repeated early embryonic loss (REEL) in horses. In most cases, carriers of such translocations are phenotypically normal, but the chromosomal aberration ...
