Preparation, characterization and photoelectrochemical study of mixed C60-Starburst PAMAM G0.0 dendrimer films anchored on the surface of nanocrystalline TiO2 semiconductor electrodes.
Nanocrystalline TiO2 silanized electrodes were prepared and further modified in a sequential fashion with C60 and Starburst PAMAM G0.0 dendrimers, resulting in a novel photoelectrochemical sensitization film that showed particularly high photocurrent (IPCE) and global photoconversion efficiencies (eta).
