DFT Study of Leuco-Indigo and Indigo as Active Material in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell

Abstract: Computational study of natural indigo has been carried out to get the optimized structure and electronic properties of two indigo at different pH. It has been found that indigo has the potential to be applied as active material in the dye-sensitized solar cell. Computational calculations are performed using Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP functional and 6-31G(d,p) for ground state geometry optimization and Time Dependent-Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT) for excited states single point calculation.… Show more

“…The absorption at around 550 nm appears with intermediates and that at around 450 nm occurs at the reduced form. The π-electron system of the oxidized form is extended throughout the chromophore compared to that of the reduced form, 27,28 as shown in Figure 1c. The oxidized form absorbs longer wavelength light.…”

“…The presence of a CC double bond, connecting cyclic unsaturated moieties, determines planarity and achirality of indigo, represented by resonance of multiple Lewis structures that collectively describe the electronic bonding of the molecule, creating a beautiful, rich shade by mixing primary colors blue and red. Instead, leuco‐indigo is colorless, although its structure is also characterized by resonance 38 …”

“…Each type of bond will have a different frequency, so it can be used to determine the type of bond, structure, or functional group. The infrared spectrum shows the fingerprints for each molecule in the calculation (Maahury, et al, 2020). It shows the functional group of calculated molecules.…”
