Efficiency enhancement of black dye-sensitized solar cells by newly synthesized D–π–A coadsorbents: a theoretical study
文献信息

In this work, using the DFT and TDDFT, we have theoretically studied the electronic and optical properties of the two recently synthesized coadsorbents Y1 and Y2, which were aimed to enhance the efficiency of the black dye-sensitized solar cells. To determine the solvatochromic shifts, both the implicit and mixed implicit–explicit models have been used. The connection between the solvatochromic shifts and the changes in dipole moments in the excitation process is discussed. The difference in excitation charge transfer is utilized to explain the experimentally observed difference in Jsc for Y1 and Y2. Investigating the interactions of I2 molecules in the electrolyte solution with the coadsorbents showed that with Y1 the recombination loss was weakened through decreasing the I2 concentration near the TiO2 surface, whereas with Y2 it was increased. As a result, the higher values of both Jsc and Voc with the Y1 coadsorbent explain its experimentally observed higher efficiency. The present study sheds light on how to design and engineer newer coadsorbents or organic dyes for higher efficiencies.

This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
