Highly soluble energy relay dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
High solubility is a requirement for energy relay dyes (ERDs) to absorb a large portion of incident light and significantly improve the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Two benzonitrile-soluble ERDs, BL302 and BL315, were synthesized, characterized, and resulted in a 65% increase in the efficiency of TT1-sensitized DSSCs. The high solubility (180 mM) of these ERDs allows for ab...
متن کاملNovel organic dyes for efficient dye-sensitized solar cells.
Two novel metal-free organic dyes containing thienothiophene and thiophene segments have been synthesized. Nano-crystalline TiO2 dye-sensitized solar cells were fabricated using these dyes as light-harvesting sensitizers, and a high solar energy-to-electricity conversion efficiency of 6.23% was achieved.
متن کاملOligothiophene-containing coumarin dyes for efficient dye-sensitized solar cells.
We have developed oligothiophene-containing coumarin dyes fully functionalized for dye-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO(2) solar cells (DSSCs). DSSCs based on the dyes gave good performance in terms of incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) in the range of 400-800 nm. A solar energy-to-electricity conversion efficiency (eta) of 7.4% was obtained with a DSSC based on 2-cyano-3-[5'...
متن کاملNew Triphenylamine-Based Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
A series of new conjugated metal-free organic dyes (TC1, TC2, TC3, and TC4) comprising triphenylamine (TPA) moieties as the electron donor and cyanoacetic acid moieties as the electron acceptor/anchoring groups were designed at the molecular level and developed for the use in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Quantum chemical calculations have been performed to gain insight into structural, el...
متن کاملAcid azo dyes for efficient molecular photovoltaic: study of dye-sensitized solar cells performance
In this paper we sensitized three free-metal azo days Dye 1, Dye 2 and Dye 3 based on 1,8-naphthalimide with n-propyl as the electron donor group. We used sulfonic acid and hydroxyl substituents as the electron acceptor anchoring group in synthesized dyes. The proposed dyes were sensitized from acenaphthene as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different techniques...
