AI Article Synopsis

  • * Researchers developed a series of GJ push-pull organic dyes that are simple to synthesize, requiring only four steps, and feature unique molecular structures.
  • * The GJ-BP dye achieved a notable power conversion efficiency of 6.16% under simulated sunlight, while another dye, GJ-P, showed similar performance, indicating potential for future applications.

Article Abstract

The need for low-cost and highly efficient dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells under both the sunlight and dim light environments is growing. We have devised GJ-series push-pull organic dyes which require only four synthesis steps. These dyes feature a linear molecular structure of donor-perylene-ethynylene-arylcarboxylic acid, where donor represents N,N-diarylamino group and arylcarboxylic groups represent benzoic, thienocarboxylic, 2-cyano-3-phenylacrylic, 2-cyano-3-thienoacrylic, and 4-benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl-benzoic groups. In this study, we demonstrated that a dye without tedious and time-consuming synthesis efforts can perform efficiently. Under the illumination of AM1.5G simulated sunlight, the benzothiadiazole-benzoic-containing GJ-BP dye shows the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 6.16% with V of 0.70 V and J of 11.88 mA cm using liquid iodide-based electrolyte. It also shows high performance in converting light of 6000 lx light intensity, that is, incident power of ca. 1.75 mW cm, to power output of 0.28 mW cm which equals a PCE of 15.79%. Interestingly, the benzoic-containing dye GJ-P with a simple molecular structure has comparable performance in generating power output of 0.26 mW cm (PCE of 15.01%) under the same condition and is potentially viable toward future application.
