-Sunlight enters the structure,excites electron-hole pairs in dye.
-Electron is transferred into
TiO2 conduction band, and hole is filled by I- ions (3I- 2e- + I3
-).
-Electron travels through circuit, reduces I3
- (2e- + I3- 3I-)
A Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs): a potential low cost alternative to Si solar cells.

•Variability between samples even when using the same dying procedure.
•Broadening of the principal features could be related to order on the surface.

•Roughly the same features are found for the three dyes. In particular, HOMO at the same position in the three cases.
•Effect of adsorption mode difficult to interpret in terms of electronic structure. No obvious dependence.

Next steps
•Quantitative analysis of all the XPS data for coverage determination.
•Better understanding of the free ZnTPP electronic structure to anticipate the modifications of the DOS as a function of the adsorption geometry.
Ab-initio electronic structure calculation (GAMESS)Literature?...
•Using the low cross section of Zn sp states in ZnO CB would allow a better characterization of the unoccupied molecular states.

Next steps
•STM imaging of individual molecules on a pivalic acid passivated surface.
•Spectroscopic measurements (XPS-UPS-IPS) with prior pivalic acid passivation of the surface.
