Porphyrin sensitized solar cells: TiO2 sensitization with a pi-extended porphyrin possessing two anchoring groups.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A pi-extended porphyrin possessing two anchoring groups has been synthesized and successfully applied to dye-sensitized solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 5.5%, rendering it comparable to the performance of N719-sensitized solar cells under the conditions employed here.

Computational design of concomitant type-I and type-II porphyrin sensitized solar cells.
Structures and electronic properties of porphyrins with various Donor (D)-Acceptor (A) functionalization adsorbed on TiO2 (anatase) nanoparticles are studied using DFT calculations. Adsorption of porphyrin leads to a substantial loss of planarity (puckering) for the porphyrin rings due to the stabilization of the system by the interaction of the lone-pair of electrons of the N-atoms of porphyri...
متن کاملDye sensitized solar cells: TiO2 sensitization with a bodipy-porphyrin antenna system.
A zinc porphyrin derivative (2) and zinc porphyrin-bodipy dyad (3) have been prepared and applied to dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). On the basis of absorption and fluorescence excitation spectra, dyad 3 efficiently transfers energy from the bodipy to zinc porphyrin constituent. The 3-sensitized solar cell demonstrates higher solar spectral coverage, based on incident photon to current effi...
متن کاملEffect of the co-sensitization sequence on the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells with porphyrin and organic dyes.
To obtain a broad spectral response in the visible region, TiO2 film is co-sensitized with a porphyrin dye (FNE57 or FNE59) and an organic dye (FNE46). It is found that the stepwise co-sensitization in one single dye solution followed by in another single dye solution is better than the co-sensitization in a cocktail solution in terms of photovoltaic performance. The stepwise co-sensitization f...
متن کاملTetrachelate porphyrin chromophores for metal oxide semiconductor sensitization: effect of the spacer length and anchoring group position.
Four Zn(II)-tetra(carboxyphenyl)porphyrins in solution and bound to metal oxide (TiO2, ZnO, and ZrO2) nanoparticle films were studied to determine the effect of the spacer length and anchoring group position (para or meta) on their binding geometry and photoelectrochemical and photophysical properties. The properties of three types of anchoring groups (COOH and COONHEt3) for four Zn(II)-porphyr...
متن کاملComparison of silatrane, phosphonic acid, and carboxylic acid functional groups for attachment of porphyrin sensitizers to TiO2 in photoelectrochemical cells.
A tetra-arylporphyrin dye was functionalized with three different anchoring groups used to attach molecules to metal oxide surfaces. The physical, photophysical and electrochemical properties of the derivatized porphyrins were studied, and the dyes were then linked to mesoporous TiO2. The anchoring groups were β-vinyl groups bearing either a carboxylate, a phosphonate or a siloxy moiety. The si...
