TI  - Co-sensitization of organic dyes for efficient ionic liquid electrolyte-based 
      dye-sensitized solar cells.
PG  - 10906-9
AB  - The co-sensitization of two organic dyes (SQ1 and JK2), which are complementary 
      in their spectral responses, shows enhanced photovoltaic performance compared 
      with that of an individual organic dye-sensitized solar cell. The power 
      conversion efficiency of the co-sensitized organic dye solar cell based on the 
      newly developed binary ionic liquid (solvent-free) electrolyte gives 6.4% under 
      AM 1.5 sunlight at 100 mW/cm2 irradiation, which is higher than that of 
      individual dye-sensitized solar cells. The incident monochromatic 
      photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of the co-sensitized solar cell 
      shows typical absorption peaks at 530 and 650 nm corresponding to the two dyes 
      and displays a broad spectral response over the entire visible spectrum with IPCE 
      of >40% in the 400-700 nm wavelength domain.
