A series of new zinc-porphyrin dyes that contain different meso substituents (phenyl, carbazole phenyl, and carbazole thiophenyl groups) and bithiophenyl cyanoacrylic acid as the π-conjugated anchoring moiety were designed, synthesized, and characterized as sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The effects of these meso substituents on the properties of the porphyrin dyes were theoretically and experimentally investigated. By meso substitution of the porphyrin ring with carbazole-aryl moieties, the short-circuit current (Jsc ) and open-circuit voltage (Voc ) of the DSSCs were improved as was the power conversion efficiency (η) owing to the influence of both the suppression of dye aggregations and the enhanced charge separation and charge-injection efficiency of the dye to TiO2 films. Among these dyes, ZnPCPA made of the carbazole phenyl meso substituents gave rise to the highest η of 6.24 % (Jsc =13.38 mA cm(-2) , Voc =0.66 V, and fill factor of 0.71).

Effect of Alkyl Chain Length on the Sensitizing Action of Substituted Non‐Symmetric Squaraines for p‐Type Dye‐Sensitized Solar Cells

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The design and the synthesis of three unsymmetrical squaraines, DS_34, DS_45, and DS_47, have been achieved for their utilization as sensitizers of screen‐printed NiO cathodes in p‐type dye‐sensitized solar cells (p‐DSCs). DS_34, DS_45, and DS_47 are bidentate dyes, each bearing two carboxylic anchoring groups, which differ solely in the length of alkyl chain attached to the nitrogen atom of the condensed pyrrole ring (ethyl, butyl, and dodecyl for DS_45, DS_34, and DS_47, respectively). The photoelectrochemical properties of the corresponding p‐DSCs are compared and analyzed in terms of the structural differences of DS_34, DS_45, and DS_47. The benchmark dye, p‐SQ2, has also been employed as a p‐DSC sensitizer for the sake of comparison. Current density−voltage (JV) curves and incident photon‐to‐current conversion efficiency (IPCE) spectra revealed the major efficaciousness of the DS_45 as a dye‐sensitizer, as it was the only system that produced a p‐DSC surpassing 0.04 % of overall efficiency (η). This finding was attributed mainly to the larger surface concentration of chemisorbed DS_45 with respect to the other squaraines.
