Abstract
In this paper, by introducing [1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-c]pyridine (PT) as an auxiliary acceptor into the molecular design of organic sensitizers, we have synthesized four new dyes (PT1-PT4) for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with triphenylamine or N,N-diphenylthiophen-2-amine as the donor units and thiophene or benzene as the π-bridges, respectively. All the structures, optical and electrochemical properties were fully characterized. Nanocrystalline TiO 2 dye-sensitized solar cells were also fabricated using these dyes. Among them, PT2-based DSSCs showed the highest overall conversion efficiency of 6.11% with Voc=668 mV, Jsc=12.61 mA cm-2 and a fill factor (FF)=0.74 after a chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) treatment under standard illumination condition (100 mW cm-2 simulated AM 1.5 solar light).
