Because of the increasing scarcity of fossil fuels and the growing need for energy, it has become necessary to research new renewable energy resources. In this study, five new high-performance materials (TP-FAF-TP - TP-FAF-TP) of the D-π-A-π-D configuration based on triphenylamine (TPA) were theoretically investigated by applying DFT and TD-DFT methods for future application as heterojunction organic solar cells (BHJ). The influence of the modification of the acceptor (A) of the parent molecule TP-FTzF-TP on the structural, electronic, photovoltaic and optical properties of the TP-FA1F-TP - TP-FA5F-TP organic molecules was investigated in detail.

- Global energy demand is rising due to population growth and economic development, making renewable energy sources like solar power increasingly important.
- Researchers studied four new organic dyes (D2-D5) based on triphenylamine (TPA) using theoretical methods to enhance dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).
- Modifying the π-spacer of the reference dye D1 improved its electronic properties, leading to better hole injection and stronger charge transfer, while results showed promising potential for high open-circuit voltage and light-harvesting efficiency.
