Alizarin is one of the dyes extensively investigated as an example of a molecule capable of serving as a light absorber and an electron donor in model systems designed for the new type solar cells. Using the Stark effect measurements for alizarin, both free in solution and adsorbed to TiO2 nanoparti...
