商品簡介
This work considers all aspects of the structure and physiochemical action mechanisms of dye-sensitized solar cells, photochemical systems of light energy conversion, and related areas. The first four chapters form supply theoretical and experimental background on electron transfer theories, principal stages and photochemical systems of photosynthetic light energy conversion, and redox processes on surfaces of semiconductors and metals. Later chapters cover dye sensitized solar cells, and photocatalytic reduction and oxidation of water. The book includes many b&w process diagrams and chemical diagrams. It will be useful for scientists and engineers working on dye-sensitive solar cells and other molecular systems of light energy conversion, and related areas such as photochemistry and photosynthesis. The book will also be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students in chemistry, physics, and biophysics. The author is professor emeritus at Ben-Gurion University of Negev, Israel.

作者簡介
Gertz I. Likhtenshtein received his PhD and his doctor of science from the Semenov Institute of Chemical Physics at the Russian Academy of Science in Moscow, where he was appointed to the position of Head of Laboratory of Chemical Physics of Enzyme Catalysis in 1965, becoming a professor in 1976.
In 1992 he moved to the Department of Chemistry at the Ben-Gurion University of Negev, Israel, as a full professor in charge of the Laboratory of Chemical Biophysics and has been an emeritus since 2003. He has authored nine scientific books and around 380 papers, and his many awards include the Medal of the Exhibition of Economic Achievement, the Diploma of Discovery, the USSR State Prize, the V.V. Voevodsky
International Price for Chemical Physics and the Diploma of the Israel Chemical Society. Professor Likhtenshtein is a member of the International ESR Society, the American Biophysical Society, the Israel Chemical Society and the Israel ESR Society.
His main scientific interests focus on antioxidants analysis and mechanisms of light energy conversion.
