This project focuses on developing new dyes to enhance the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells by improving their absorption in the far red and near infrared regions of the solar spectrum. The goal is to synthesize quinoidal porphyrins and phthalocyanines to overcome current limitations in solar cell performance.
The development of novel materials is crucial to the improvement of solar cells.
State-of-the-art dye-sensitized solar cells utilize “push-pull” porphyrin dyes (coded YD2-oC8) and have reported efficiencies up to 12.3%.
However, YD2-oC8 and structurally similar dyes display limited to no absorption in the far red and near infrared regions of the solar spectrum.
This region is where photon flux is at a maximum and improved absorption in this area should result in improved device efficiencies.…
