Ar. Tameev et al., PHOTOCHEMICAL SENSITIZATION OF PHOTOVOLTA IC CELL-BASED ON POLY(HYDROXYAMINOESTER), Vysokomolekularnye soedinenia. Seria A, 39(1), 1997, pp. 127-130
The electric and photovoltaic characteristics of a sandwich structure
(Al/polymer/Se/SnO2 + In2O3) based on poly(hydroxyaminoester), photoch
emically oxidized by CBr4 introduced in the polymer film, were studied
. The oxidation product is an efficient sensitizer of photoconductance
in the red spectral range. This results in a four times higher effici
ency of photoconversion in the visible light as compared to that of a
photovoltaic cell with a polymer layer containing no oxidation product
s. The efficiency of photoconversion amounted to 0.05% at a wavelength
of 630 nm and an illumination energy density of 0.45 W/m(2).
