title: Enhanced photoelectrochemical performance of composite photovoltaic cells of Li(+)@C60-sulphonated porphyrin supramolecular nanoclusters.
abstract: A photoelectrochemical solar cell composed of supramolecular nanoclusters of lithium encapsulated fullerene and zinc sulphonated meso-tetraphenylporphyrin exhibits significant enhancement in the photoelectrochemical performance as compared with the reference system containing only a single component.
