Abstract

In this paper, we theoretically and numerically investigate a new type of analytically solvable laser-driven systems inspired by electron-injection dynamics in dye-sensitized solar cells. The simple analytical expressions are found to be useful for understanding the difference between dye excitation and direct photo-injection occurring between dye molecule and semiconductor nanoparticles. More importantly, we propose a method for discriminating experimentally dye excitation and direct photo-injection using time-dependent fluorescence. We have found that dye excitation shows no significant quantum beat, whereas the direct photo-injection shows a significant quantum beat.
