Abstract:
A series of novel metal-free organic sensitizers based on N-annulated perylene derivatives have been designed and synthesized, and exhibit broad absorption spectra in the visible region. The dye-sensitized solar cells exhibit overall conversion efficiencies ranging from 4.90% to 8.28% under AM 1.5 solar conditions.
