摘要
Double donor-acceptor (D-A) branched dyes (DBD) with a phenothiazine unit as electron donor and a 2-cyanoacrylic acid unit as electron acceptor were synthesized and used as sensitizers for solar cells (DSSCs). The conversion efficiency of the DSSCs amounts up to 4.22% (2.91% for the single D-A branched dye) under AM 1.5 G irradiation. The results show that the performance of DSSCs can be effectively enhanced by the cooperation of two donor-acceptor containing branches in one molecule of the dyes.
