Methods to calculate charge mobilities • Hopping transport:
– Charge transfer integrals + other elements, directly printed– Electronic couplings from frozen-density embedding
• Band transport: effective mass tensors in BAND
• Non-equilibrium Green’s Function (NEGF)– transmission probabilities for single-molecule junctions– quick calculation: wide-band limit– also in BAND (periodic structures) and in DFTB (large systems) Q

Electron injection from Ru dye to TiO2

• Ruthenium polypiridyl dyes with extended π system shows an enhancement of its light harvesting capacity.
• However, it is not necessarily reflected by an increase of its efficiency as dye because an efficient electron injection from the dye to TiO2 does not always occur.
