Exploratory Insight into the Long-Term Photostability of the Brilliant Cresyl Blue Based Electrolyte Solution of Photogalvanic Cells
Abstract
Photogalvanic cells have been studied with respect to the photostability of the brilliant cresyl blue (ВСВ) dye sensitizer Fructose reductant sodium lauryl sulfate surfactant NaOH alkali electrolyte solution and the consequent electrical output over a long time period. It is observed that ВСВ dye photosensitizer molecules undergo photodecay, but despite this decay, the cell, even with the photodecayed electrolyte, has a promising capacity to produce power with storage. The observed characteristics (spectral and electrical data) of the electrolyte are quite indicative of the stability of the ВСВ dye photosensitizer-based photogalvanic cell.
