摘要
A trisheteroleptic cyclometalated ruthenium complex (see picture) bearing aliphatic substituents was synthesized, characterized, and evaluated in a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). This thiocyanate-free dye, which has favorable structural elements to exhibit long-term stability, generates a high power output in the DSSC with both iodide-based and Co-based redox shuttles.
