Abstract

The electrical characteristics and monochromatic power efficiency are given for the first singlet state-driven photogalvanic cell which is based on the photoreduction of the title dye by iron(II) with spontaneous regeneration of the dye and iron(II) from the charge carriers leuco-oxonine and iron(III) at the anode and cathode respectively.
