Abstract:
Cyclometalated ruthenium complexes of [Ru(C--arrow--N) (N--N--N)] configuration are a promising new class of molecular sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells, as a result of their broad and red-shifted visible absorption in comparison to the analogous [Ru(N--N--N)2] type coordinative complexes.
