Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are robust and intensely colored macrocycles (blue pigments) with
high chemical, thermal and light stability, properties that are of paramount importance for …

Among the several approaches for harnessing solar energy and converting it into electricity,
dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) represent one of the most promising methods for future …

A new series of metal-free organic chromophores (TPA-TTAR-A (1), TPA-T-TTAR-A (2), TPA-
TTAR-TA (3), and TPA-T-TTAR-TA (4)) are synthesized for application in dye-sensitized …

All‐organic dyes have shown promising potential as an effective sensitizer in dye‐sensitized
solar cells (DSSCs). The design concept of all‐organic dyes to improve light‐to‐electric …

We design a series of metal-free donor-π-bridge molecules (denoted VB0–VB4) based on a
new donor group ullazine donor as sensitizers for dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) …

Indoline (In) and aniline (An) donor-based visible light active unsymmetrical squaraine (SQ)
dyes were synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), where the position of An and …

In this work we target on accurately predicting energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized
solar cells (DSC) using parameter-free first principles simulations. We present a set of …

Fe (II) pyridyl-NHC sensitizers bearing thienylcyanoacrylic (ThCA) anchoring groups have
been designed and characterized with the aim of enhancing the metal to surface charge …

One of the most significant aspects in the development of dye-sensitized solar cells is the
exploration and design of high-efficiency and low-cost dyes. This paper reports the …

Alkyl group wrapped donor–acceptor–donor (DAD) based unsymmetrical squaraine dyes
SQ1, SQ5, and SQS4 were used to evaluate the effect of sensitizing solvents on dye …
