An Open Access Data Set Highlighting Aggregation of Dyes on Metal Oxides

The adsorption of a dye to a metal oxide surface such as TiO<sub>2</sub>, NiO and ZnO leads to deprotonation and often undesirable aggregation of dye molecules, which in turn impacts the photophysical properties of the dye. While controlled aggregation is useful for some applications, it...

While controlled aggregation is useful for some applications, it can result in lower performance for dye-sensitized solar cells. To understand this phenomenon better, we have conducted an extensive search of the literature and identified over 4000 records of absorption spectra in solution and after adsorption onto metal oxide. The total data set comprises over 3500 unique compounds, with observed absorption maxima in solution and after adsorption on the semiconductor electrode. This data may serve to provide further insight into the structure-property relationships governing dye-aggregation behaviour.https://www.mdpi.com/2306-5729/5/2/45dye sensitized solar cellaggregationdatabaseabsorptionsolvent polarity
