چکیده
Oxasmaragdyrin boron complexes were prepared and applied in DSSCs. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap analyses and theoretical calculations revealed that these expanded porphyrins are ideal sensitizers for DSSCs. A device containing oxasmaragdyrin-BF2 as the sensitizer achieves an energy conversion efficiency of 5.7%.

Application of azo dye as sensitizer in dye-sensitized solar cells
An azo dye used as photosensitizers in Dye-sensitized solar cells DSSCs. Azo dyes economically superior to organometallic dyes because they are color variation and cheap. The spectrophotometric evaluation of an azo dye in solution and on a TiO2 substrate show that the dye form J-aggregation on the nanostructured TiO2 substrate. Oxidation potential measurements for used azo dyes ensured an energ...

متن کاملSimple Synthesis of In2S3 Nanoparticles and their Application as Co-sensitizer to Improve Energy Conversion of DSSCs
This paper describes synthesis of In2S3 nanoparticles by sonochemistry method and their application to enhance solar cells performance which In2S3 nanoparticles work as co-sensitizer for the first time. In2S3 is a narrow band gap semiconductor (2 eV) with conduction band higher than TiO2. Therefore it can transfer electron to the conduction band of TiO2. The effect of different parameters such ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Application of Two Organic Dyes Based on Indoline in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
In this paper we sensitized two new organic days dye 1 and dye 2 based on thioindigo with phenothiazine as the electron donor group. We used acrylic acid and cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor anchoring group in dye 1 and dye 2 respectively. The proposed dyes were sensitized from phenothiazine as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different techniques such ...
متن کاملEnhanced dye-sensitized solar cell photocurrent and efficiency using a Y-shaped, pyrazine-containing heteroaromatic sensitizer linkage.
A new sensitizer motif for dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC) has been developed. A heteroaromatic moiety containing a pyrazine ring links two porphyrin chromophores to the metal oxide surface via two carboxylic acid attachment groups. A test DSSC sensitized with the new molecule was 3.5 times more efficient than a similar cell sensitized by a single porphyrin model compound. The open circuit ph...
