  1. 1. Supramolecular chemistry based on redox-active components and cucurbit[n]urils

    Författare :Samir Andersson; Licheng Professor; Werner Nau; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cucurbit[n]uril; redox-active; viologen; light-driven; water oxidation; molecular motor; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the host-guest chemistry between Cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and CB[8] and a series of guests including bispyridinium cations, phenols and  napthalenes. These guests are bound to ruthenium polypyridine complexes or ruthenium based water oxidation catalysts (WOCs). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Advanced Organic Hole Transport Materials for Solution-Processed Photovoltaic Devices

    Författare :Xu Bo; Sun Licheng; Karl Leo; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Solution-processable photovoltaic devices (PVs), such as perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (sDSCs) show great potential to replace the conventional silicon-based solar cells for achieving low-cost and large-area solar electrical energy generation in the near future, due to their easy manufacture and high efficiency. Organic hole transport materials (HTMs) play important roles in both PSCs and sDSCs, and thereby can well facilitate the hole separation and transportation, for obtaining high performance solar cells.

  5. 4. Artificial Water Splitting: Ruthenium Complexes for Water Oxidation

    Författare :Lele Duan; Licheng Sun; Matthias Beller; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water oxidation; ruthenium; electrochemistry; DFT calculation; photoelectrochemistry; negatively charged ligand; catalyst;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the development and study of Ru-based water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) which are the essential components for solar energy conversion to fuels. The first chapter gives a general introduction about the field of homogenous water oxidation catalysis, including the catalytic mechanisms and the catalytic activities of some selected WOCs as well as the concerns of catalyst design.

  7. 5. Towards Artificial Photosynthesis: Exploration of Efficient First-Row Transition Metal-Based Water Oxidation Catalysts

    Författare :Lizhou Fan; Licheng Sun; Thomas Wågberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Artificial photosynthesis; Water oxidation; Heterogeneous catalyst; Electrochemistry; Electronic structure; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Artificial photosynthesis provides a promising strategy for sustainable energy harvesting, yet its overall efficiency is limited by the water oxidation reaction. The subject of this thesis focuses on the exploration of highly efficient cost-effective heterogeneous catalysts for water oxidation, and the investigation of essential catalyst structure-activity relationships.
