چکیده
Four D-π-A sensitizers comprising a thienyl-diketopyrrolopyrrole (ThDPP) bridge were synthesized and tested in iodide/triiodide liquid electrolyte DSC devices. The dye series was strategically designed to develop a structure-property relationship. The best performing sensitizer utilized a phenyl-based anchor and triphenylamine donor (η = 5.03%).

Towards high-performance DPP-based sensitizers for DSC applications.
A novel, asymmetric DPP bridge/core was synthesized and tested in DSC devices. By desymmetrising the DPP core/bridge, a remarkable IPCE of >80% and a maximum power conversion efficiency of 7.7% were achieved. With the use of a wide-bandgap co-sensitizer, 8.6% PCE was realized under standard AM1.5G sunlight.
متن کاملDiketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives for efficient NiO-based dye-sensitized solar cells.
Two new diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) based sensitizers (DPP-Br, DPPCN2) and a novel dyad DPP-NDI (NDI = naphthalene diimide) were synthesized and investigated for use in NiO p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSCs). The simple push-pull DPP-CN2 gives a promising photoconversion efficiency (PCE) of 0.07% with the iodide/triiodide electrolyte while the PCE of the dyad reaches 0.18% with a cobalt ...
متن کاملBlue-Coloured Highly Efficient Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells by Implementing the Diketopyrrolopyrrole Chromophore
The paradigm shift in dye sensitized solar cells (DSCs) - towards donor- π bridge-acceptor (D-π-A) dyes - increases the performances of DSCs and challenges established design principles. Framed by this shifting landscape, a series of four diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based sensitizers utilizing the donor-chromophore-anchor (D-C-A) motif were investigated computationally, spectroscopically, and fa...
متن کاملEffect of Dopant on Improving Structural, Density and Functional Properties of Ceria Based SOFC Electrolyte
In the present work, Gadolinium Doped ceria (GDC) based solid electrolyte was successfully synthesized through wet chemical method to operate at intermediate temperature (500–700°C) for SOFCs. DSC study revealed the formation of GDC phase at 900°C during calcination. The crystal structure of GDC was identified as cubic fluorite phase and the crystallite size was found to be around 23 nm....
متن کاملDithiafulvalene functionalized diketopyrrolopyrrole based sensitizers for efficient hydrogen production.
We have designed and synthesized two new diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) based organic sensitizers (DPPCA and DPPCN) with the dithiafulvalene (DTF) unit as donor and cyanoacrylic acid/malononitrile as acceptor moieties. These dyes showed excellent efficiency of photocatalytic hydrogen production over a Pt-TiO2 composite via solar-induced water splitting. The sensitizers showed broad absorptions over...
