title: The origin of open circuit voltage of porphyrin-sensitised TiO(2) solar cells.
abstract: Electron lifetime and diffusion coefficient measurements in highly efficient porphyrin-sensitised TiO(2) solar cells showed reduced electron lifetime, and consequently, lower photo-induced electron density under illumination compared to commonly used ruthenium dye (N719)-sensitised solar cells, which is proposed to be the origin of the generally lower open circuit voltage.
