Effect of metal ions in the electron-transfer mechanism on the photovoltaic performance of SALPHEN-based DSSC: experimental and theoretical studies

Abstract

This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of metal complexes of Fe(III), Co(II), and Cu(II) with SALPHEN (N,N-bis(salicylimine)-o-phenyldiammine), and their potential application as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). A...
