Photoelectrochemical Biofuel Cell Using Triarylamine Dye-Sensitized Titanium Dioxide Film as Photoanode

Abstract:

A Photoelectrochemical Biofuel Cell (PEBFC) generating electrical energy directly from sunlight and biomass was investigated. In this paper,the PEBFC had a triarylamine dye-sensitized titanium dioxide(TiO₂) film photoanode and Pt black cathode. The electron transport process of the PEBFC was also described. The performances of the PEBFC were obtained by photocurrent–photovoltage characteristic curves.The open-circuit photovoltage(V_oc), the short-circuit photocurrent (I_sc) and the maximum power density (P_max) was 0.82V, 69.00 μAcm^-2 and14.00μWcm^-2 at 0.27 V, respectively. The fill factor (FF) was 0.25 and the incident photo-to-current efficiency (IPCE) was 3.5% at 441 nm.
