title: Polyoxometalate supported complexes as effective electron-transfer mediators in dye-sensitized solar cells.
abstract: Two Anderson-type heteropolyanion-supported copper phenanthroline redox couples have been successfully introduced into dye-sensitized solar cells, which can significantly increase the short-circuit photocurrent, open-circuit voltage and the conversion efficiency by 2.2 times, 26.8% and 3.93 times respectively, compared to the pristine copper phenanthroline redox couple.
