New technique to improve titanium dioxide films in dye-sensitized solar cells

Dutch scientists are producing mesoporous titanium dioxide thin films at room temperature by using the papain enzyme in a dip-coating procedure. This fully organic process could facilitate the development of cheaper, more efficient dye-sensitized solar cells.Researchers from Delft University of Technology have developed a new manufacturing process that could facilitate the eventual production of stable, high-performance perovskite solar cells. The process, described in Characterization of Enzymatically Synthesized Titania Thin Films Using Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy Reveals Low-Cost Approach ...
