Abstract

This paper reports a new coumarin dye, 2-cyano-3-(5-{2-[5-(1,1,6,6-tetramethyl-10-oxo-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro- 1H,4H,10H -11-oxa-3a-aza-benzo[ de ]anthracen -9-yl)-thiophen-2-yl]-vinyl}-thiophen-2-yl)-acrylic acid (NKX-2700), and its application in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Under illumination of simulated AM1.5G solar light (100 mW cm -2 ) with an aperture black mask, 5.0% of power conversion efficiency [short-circuit photocurrent density ( J sc ) = 12.0 mA cm -2, open-circuit photovoltage ( V oc ) = 0.59 V, and fill factor (FF) = 0.71] was obtained for NKX-2700 based DSSC, which was significantly improved to 8.2% ( J sc = 15.9 mA cm -2, V oc = 0.69 V, FF = 0.75) upon addition of 120 mM deoxycholic acid (DCA) to the dye solution for TiO 2 sensitization. Coadsorption of DCA decreased dye coverage by ∼50% but significantly improved the J sc by 33%. The breakup of π-stacked aggregates might improve electron injection yield and thus J sc . Electrochemical impedance data indicate that the electron lifetime was improved by coadsorption of DCA, accounting for the significant improvement of V oc . These results suggest that interfacial engineering of the organic dye-sensitized TiO 2 electrodes is important for highly efficient photovoltaic performance of the solar cell.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
