Miyasaka was the first who employed it as a sensitizer layer in dye-sensitized solar cells and achieved a PCE of 3.8 % [4].
The application of pigment obtained under the optimal condition was further evaluated as a sensitizer for the dye sensitized solar cells.
However, only one report is available on photovoltaic performance of Sb2Se3 as a sensitizer spin coated on TiO2 photoanode in semiconductor sensitized solar cell applications [6].
However, even though TNFα induces NF-κB activation, TNFα functions primarily as a sensitizer of TRAIL-induced apoptosis and it seems that TNFα-mediated apoptosis sensitization function apparently overpowers the TNFα-induced and NF-κB-mediated tumor cell survival effects.
Also of note, Roh et al. used organic dye as a sensitizer to fabricate solar devices.
Two different types of lanthanide-dopants are usually employed: a sensitizer and an activator.
This was done by ultraviolet irradiation in the presence of a sensitizer.
Eosin-Y (EY) and triethanolamine (TEOA) were employed as a sensitizer and electron donor, respectively.
It is also used in microbiology, surgery and diagnostics and as a sensitizer in photo-oxidation of organic pollutants.
The role of the additive has been explained to be a sensitizer role for the cation reduction [29].
