چکیده
Asymmetric zinc phthalocyanines with alkyl chain substituents formed highly efficient light-harvesting layers on a TiO2 surface. Dye-sensitized solar cells using PcS20 exhibited a record efficiency of 6.4% under one-sun irradiation.

Synthesis and Application of Two Organic Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
In the present study, two new organic dyes based on indigo were prepared and used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells. To this end, indoxyl was utilized as the electron donor and cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor anchoring groups. These dyes together with their corresponding intermediates were purified and characterized by FTIR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, elemental analysis and UV-Visible...
متن کاملApplication 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...

In this paper we used two free-metal organic dyes (dye 1 and dye 2) based on indigo and thioindigo with cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor group. The proposed dyes were sensitized from naphalene as the starting material by standard reactions and characterized by different analytical techniques and UV-Visible spectroscopy after purification. Spectrophotometric measurements of the organic...
متن کاملSynthesis of sterically hindered phthalocyanines and their applications to dye-sensitized solar cells.
Phthalocyanines with high peripheral substitutions and free from potential contamination by regioisomers have been synthesized and evaluated as photosensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cell applications. Each of the sterically hindered precursor compounds was accomplished by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions with the arylchloride and corresponding boronic acids. Metal free phthalocyanine...
