In this study the use of microwave plasma sintering of nickel oxide (NiOx) particles for use as p-type photoelectrode coatings in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is investigated. NiOx was chosen as the photocathode for ...
Nickel oxide (NiOx) due to its p-type nature has considerable potential as a photocathodic
material in energy conversion devices such as dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). However,NiOx has not been extensively used for ...
The large intrinsic band gap of NiO has hindered severely its potential application under visible-light irradiation. In this study, we have performed first-principles calculations on the electronic properties of N- and ...
