Role of Rose Bengal-Mannitol System for Generation of Electrical Energy in Photo Galvanic Cell | Chapter 04 | Theory and Applications of Physical Science Vol. 2
Rose Bengal is used as a photo
sensitizer in photo galvanic cell for solar energy conversion and Mannitol is
used as an electron donor in this study. The effects of various parameters like
pH, light intensity, diffusion length, reductant concentration and dye
concentration on the electrical output of the cell is studied. The photo
potential and photocurrent generated by this cell are 850 mV and 135 μA,
respectively. The current voltage (i–V) characteristic of the cell is also
studied and a mechanism for the generation of photocurrent is proposed.
