Molecular Orbital-Based Verification of Conductivity of Tetramethylammonium Pentaiodide and Pentaiodide-Based Electrolytes in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Abstract: In order to verify the electrical conductivity of tetramethylammonium pentaiodide (TAPI, I 5 − (N(CH 3 ) 4 + )) crystal, molecular orbital configurations and energy structures of the electron-carrying state TAPI packing unit (TAPI-6) are examined by density functional theory (DFT). The narrow energy gap of the electron-carrying state radical anion of .− proves the semi-conductivity of TAPI together with the aligned configuration of singly occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) and the spin density distribution o… Show more

“…Energy structure analysis for verification of semiconducting property of the MeNH 3 PbI 3 -aligned layer in so-called PSC.-As we reported 6 in the previous theoretical study of electron mobility of tetramethylammonium pentaiodide and pentaiodide-based electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells, DFT-based single point calculations on the whole packing unit of the pale yellow PbI 6 4− crystal (FOLLIB) are carried out. The 3D molecular structures of FOLLIB (space filling model with C60 model, electrostatic potential map in unit of kJ/mol, the VASP-optimized crystal structure, and Mulliken charge on ball and wire structure) are shown in Fig.…”

“…All the 3D models show that the packing unit of FOLLIB is fully occupied by large 9 lead hexaiodide (PbI 6 4− ), one of which forms a central core unit with symmetrical three types of MeNH Figure S1, Tables S1). The Mulliken charge and the electrostatic potential map visualize molecular orbital-based van der Waals and coulomb interactions (vdW&Clb) in the pale yellow PbI 6 4− salt with MeNH 3…”
