New Triphenylamine-Based Organic Dyes for Efficient Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
Abstract
We report here on the synthesis and photophysical/electrochemical properties of a series of novel triphenylamine (TPA)-based organic dyes (TPAR1, TPAR2, TPAR4, and TPAR5) as well as their application in dye-sensitized nanocrystalline TiO 2 solar cells (DSCs). In the four designed dyes, the TPA group and the rhodanine-3-acetic acid take the role of the basic electron donor unit and the electron acceptor, respectively. It was found that introduction of a CH 2 CH− group into the TPA unit exhibited better photovoltaic performance due to the increase of the electron-density donor moiety and that introduction of a methine (−CH CH−) unit to the π bridge resulted in a red-shift and broadening of the absorption spectrum due to expansion of the π-conjugation system. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation indicated that the electron distribution moved from the donor unit to the electron acceptor under light irradiation, which means efficient intramolecular charge transfer. In particular, the DSCs based on TPAR4 showed the best photovoltaic performance: a maximum monochromatic incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of 81%, a short-circuit photocurrent density ( J sc ) of 18.2 mA cm -2, an open-circuit photovoltage ( V oc ) of 563 mV, and a fill factor (ff) of 0.61, corresponding to an overall conversion efficiency of 5.84% under AM 1.5 irradiation (100 mW cm -2 ). This work suggests that the molecular-designed triphenylamine dyes are promising in the application of DSCs.

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.
