Notes:
A complex of poly-4-vinylpyridine with iodine is formed when a thin film of the polymer is immersed in a I3-/I- redox couple solution. A hydroxyaluminum phthalocyanine photoelectrochemical cell presents short-circuit current up to 107.3 μA cm-2 for a conversion efficiency of 0.035% when the organic film is coated with the polymer layer in an iodine/iodide electrolyte. This improvement is assigned to the contribution of the complex itself and to the decrease in the series resistance of the cell.
