Characterization of Synthetic Ni(II)-Xylenol Complex as a Photosensitizer for Wide-Band Gap ZnO Semiconductor Electrodes by Suman Kushwaha, Lal Bahadur

“…The sandwich-type dye-sensitized solar cell using ZnO semiconducting thin film with test dye anchored onto it showed the cell output as follows: VOC=0.506 V, Jsc=1.68 mA cm−2, and FF=0.41 under illumination with full spectrum of light (intensity 520 mW cm−2), while on illumination with visible light (λ>420 nm, intensity 480 mW cm−2), VOC=0.506 V, Jsc=1.4 mA cm−2, and FF=0.49 were achieved. Maximum incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency for the present system was found to be 8.7% at wavelength (λmax=563 nm).…”

A multidimensional approach to quantum state tomography of photoelectron wavepackets by H. Laurell, J. Baños-Gutiérrez, A. L’Huillier, D. Busto, D. Finkelstein-Shapiro

“…To this end, several methods to reconstruct the density matrix, quantum state tomography protocols, have been developed and tested on photoelectrons ejected from noble gases following absorption of extreme ultraviolet (XUV) photons from attosecond pulses. It remains a challenge to obtain model-free, single scan protocols that can reconstruct the density matrix with high fidelities. …”
