Efficient iodine-free dye-sensitized solar cells employing truxene-based organic dyes

Abstract

Two new truxene-based organic sensitizers (M15 and M16) featuring high extinction coefficients were synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cells employing cobalt electrolyte. The M16-sensitized device displays a 7.6% efficiency at an irradiation of AM1.5 full sunlight.
