An electron donor–acceptor supramolecular complex was formed between an anionic zinc chlorin carboxylate ( ZnCh -) and lithium-ion-encapsulated [60]fullerene ( Li +@ C 60) by an electrostatic interaction in benzonitrile ( PhCN ). Photoinduced electron transfer in the supramolecular complex of ZnCh -/ Li +@ C 60 resulted in the formation of the charge-separated state via electron transfer from the triplet excited state of ZnCh - to Li +@ C 60. We report herein photovoltaic cells using ZnCh -/ Li +@ C 60 nanoclusters, which are assembled on the optically transparent electrode (OTE) of nanostructured SnO 2 (OTE/ SnO 2). The photoelectrochemical behavior of the nanostructured SnO 2 film of supramolecular nanoclusters of ZnCh - and Li +@ C 60 denoted as OTE/ SnO 2/( ZnCh -/ Li +@ C 60)n is significantly higher than the single component films of ZnCh - or Li +@ C 60 clusters, denoted as OTE/ SnO 2/( ZnCh -)n or OTE/ SnO 2/( Li +@ C 60)n.

Effect of the annealing oxidation time of electrodeposited lead (Pb) on the phase formation of lead oxide (PbO) films is reported. The phase structure, optical properties, size and morphology of the films were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and UV-vis spectroscopy. The relationship between structur and photoelectrochemical properties was investigated. Thin films of PbO produced via air annealing of electrodeposited lead consist of a mixture of two phases, orthorhombic (o-PbO) and tetragonal (t-PbO), that determine the material properties and effectiveness as absorber layer in a photoelectrochemical device. The proportion of tetragonal t-PbO increases for longer heat treatments. After 40 h, the sample consists mainly of tetragonal t-PbO. The p-type semiconducting behavior of lead oxide was studied by photocurrent measurements. Different heat treatments yield variations in the ratio of tetragonal to orthorhombic lead oxide that effect on device performances, where devices with a higher content of tetragonal t-PbO show higher photocurrent than with the orthorhombic phase.
