Snapshot of project
Objectives
Beneficiaries
1) study and preparation of new chromophores and redox mediators for DSSCs solar cells. 2) study of their linear and nonlinear optical properties. 3) multidisciplinary training of young people.
The beneficiaries are both Italian and Indian professors, researchers and PhD students involved in the project.
Role of UNIMI
Unimi has prepared the new redox mediators, tested the sensitizers and studied the linear and nonlinear optical properties of the compounds.
