New tetrazole-based organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells

Incorporation of Kojic Acid-Azo Dyes on TiO2 Thin Films for Dye Sensitized Solar Cells Applications

“…The absorption band at 346-392 nm in the UV region was attributed to the - * transition and another strong absorption band at 489-494 nm in the visible region was due to the n- * transition [37]. The red shift in maximum absorption for KA -compared to A -is due to expansion of overall conjugation systems after incorporation of kojic acid moieties and suggested some increased electron delocalization [38,39]. The corresponding data are presented in Table 1.…”

Multibranched triarylamine end-capped oxime esters as visible-light absorbing type I photoinitiators for free radical photopolymerization

“…The trends of the HOMO levels are consistent with the previous literature. 41,42 Compound TPA-CZ has the highest oxidation potential due to its weakly electron-donating ability and bulky moiety. 33…”

Effects of anchoring groups on perylenemonoimide-based sensitizers for p-type dye-sensitized solar cells and photoelectrochemical cells

“…Solar energy is considered as an environmentally friendly, sustainable energy [1][2][3] . The improvement of the conversion efficiency of solar energy attracts more attentions [4][5][6][7] . In recent years, p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSCs) and photoelectrochemical cells (PECs) based on NiO semiconductor electrodes have provided more alternative ways to increase the utilization of solar energy which can convert solar energy into electrical energy and clean fuel, respectively, such as H 2 and CH 3 OH [8][9][10][11][12] .…”
