Enhanced photoelectrochemical performance of composite photovoltaic cells of Li+@C60–sulphonated porphyrin supramolecular nanoclusters

Abstract

A photoelectrochemical solar cell composed of supramolecular nanoclusters of lithium encapsulated fullerene and zinc sulphonated meso-tetraphenylporphyrin exhibits significant enhancement in the photoelectrochemical performance as compared with the reference system containing only a single component.
