Simulations of a Ruthenium Complex and the Iodide/Triiodide Redox Couple in Aqueous Solution: Solvation and Electronic Structure

In dye-sensitized solar cells, the functions of light absorption and charge transport are separated. A photosensitive ruthenium-polypyridine dye in the cell absorbs light, injects an electron to a semiconductor and is then regenerated by a redox couple, typically iodide/triiodide. Quantum chemical c...
