研究目的
Investigating the effects of mono- and bi-cyanoacrylic acid substituted phenothiazine based sensitizers on the performance of dye sensitized solar cells.
研究成果
The study demonstrated that mono-cyanoacrylic acid substituted phenothiazine sensitizer has better photovoltaic performance due to its higher light harvesting ability and binding nature with TiO2. The presence of 4-cyanophenyl group in the bi-substituted sensitizer hinders electron flow, resulting in lower efficiency.
研究不足
The efficiency of the fabricated DSSCs was lower compared to some literature reports, indicating potential areas for optimization in the design of sensitizers.
