New organic dyes comprising carbazole, iminodibenzyl, or phenothiazine moieties, respectively, as the electron donors, and cyanoacetic acid or acrylic acid moieties as the electron acceptors/anchoring groups were synthesized and characterized. The influence of heteroatoms on carbazole, iminodibenzyl and phenothiazine donors, and cyano-substitution on the acid acceptor is evidenced by spectral, electrochemical, photovoltaic experiments, and density functional theory calculations. The phenothiazine dyes show solar-energy-to-electricity conversion efficiency (eta) of 3.46-5.53%, whereas carbazole and iminodibenzyl dyes show eta of 2.43% and 3.49%, respectively.
分别合成并表征了新型有机染料,其包含咔唑、亚氨基二苯或吩噻嗪部分作为电子供体,以及氰基乙酸或丙烯酸部分作为电子受体/锚定基团。杂原子对咔唑、亚氨基二苯和吩噻嗪供体的影响,以及氰基取代对酸受体的影响,通过光谱、电化学、光伏实验和密度泛函理论计算得到证实。吩噻嗪染料的太阳能到电能的转换效率(η)为 3.46-5.53%,而咔唑和亚氨基二苯染料的 η 分别为 2.43%和 3.49%。
