ABSTRACT
In particular, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have gained attention as low-cost, next-generation solar cells due to their simple structure, inexpensive materials, and manufacturing process. This chapter describes typical manufacturing process of DSSC. Low-cost solar cells are easy to manufacture. Large-scale hydrogen production is possible by the combination of a high-temperature gas reactor and the IS process, which is expected to meet high future demands. Cross-coupling refers to a reaction which binds together two carbons with different properties within one organic compound. Iodine can easily expand in valence to form a trivalent or pentavalent hypervalent iodine compound, exceeding the Octet rule. Coupling reaction is possible with hypervalent iodine. Iodo-pyriformin is found in natural sponges in the Caribbean and has been verified as having antimalarial activity. High-purity lead iodide (II) is used as an ingredient for perovskite compounds, to produce superior solar cell devices.
