Enhancement of dye-sensitized solar cell efficiency through co-sensitization of thiophene-based organic compounds and metal-based N-719

Synthesis of five novel thiophene-based metal-free organic dyes, named IS1-5, to study their photophysical, electrochemical properties and photovoltaic performance as sensitizers and co-sensitizers for DSSCs. Dyes IS-5 are cyanoacetanilide derivatives, which are distinguished by their small size, th...
