Spectroscopic detection of halogen bonding resolves dye regeneration in the dye-sensitized solar cell
Dye-sensitized solar cells rely on molecular dyes to absorb light and conduct electrons. Parlane et al. show that weak forces such as hydrogen bonding can be responsible for the dye regeneration step of solar cells and have an impact on the photovoltage and the efficiency.
