Abstract
The development of dye-sensitized solar cells requires an in-depth understanding of the interfacial charge-transfer dynamics that take place between dye sensitizers and semiconductors. Here, we describe a prototype system to probe these dynamics by monitoring in real time the fluorescence of two organic sensitizers, a perylene and a squaraine, bound to a SnO2 semiconductor thin film as a function of potentiostatic control of the Fermi level. The two different sensitizer fluorophores characterized by vastly different redox potentials undergo similar fluorescence modulation with applied bias, an indication that the density of states of the semiconductor largely influences the charge-transfer dynamics while energetics play a minimal role. We further show that the rate of photodegradation of the perylene sensitizer with applied bias provides a suitable marker to study the rate of charge injection and charge recombination. Taken together, our results demonstrate a suitable platform to visualize and study charge-transfer dynamics on films and constitute a step toward achieving single-molecule resolution in our quest to decipher the static and dynamic heterogeneity of charge-transfer dynamics in dye-sensitized photoanodes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
