A method for manufacturing a nano-particulate electrode for Dye Solar Cells including the steps of providing an electrically conductive substrate, formation of a nanoparticulate layer on the substrate, application of dye to the nanoparticulate layer and an additional step of electrolytic treatment of the nanoparticulate layer in an electrolyte.

Method for electrolytic engineering of nano-particulate layers

A regenerative photoelectrochemical (RPEC) device comprising two substrates, wherein: one or both substrates are transparent and are coated with transparent electrical conductor (TEC) layer; one or more layers of porous wide band gap semiconductor is/are applied to selected area of said TEC layer and sensitised with dye; electrolyte is placed between said two substrates; hole(s) made in one or both said substrates to enable external electrical connection(s) to said RPEC device.

Method to implement sealing and electrical connections to single cell and multi-cell regenerative photoelectrochemical devices

The present invention relates to multi-cell regenerative photovoltaic photoelectrochemical (RPEC) devices. The invention describes the structure of a multi-cell RPEC device where conductive interconnects are formed by a matrix mounting conductive particles, formed between extended portions of opposed planar conductive members.

Methods to implement interconnects in multi-cell regenerative photovoltaic photoelectrochemical devices

A smart window comprising a regenerative photolectrochomic (RPEC) photovoltaic element (,) juxtaposed with an electrochromic (EC) element (,). Microprocessor-based control mechanism (,) connecting the RPEC element to the EC element for controlling the current delivered to and from the EC element. The controller (,) including look-up tables (,and,) for determining the safe current to or from the EC element having regard to the amount of charge to be delivered or removed and the charge status of the EC element, the determination of charge status, charge still required and current to be delivered being made frequently to ensure that the current is kept within safe limits while minimizing switching times. New smart windows are also disclosed.
