英文摘要 | a series of metal-free acene-modified triphenylamine dyes (benzene to pentacene, denoted as tpa-ac1 to tpa-ac5) are investigated as organic sensitizers for application in dye-sensitized solar cells (dsscs). a combination of density functional theory (dft), density functional tight-binding (dftb), and time-dependent dft (tddft) approaches is employed. the effects of acene units on the spectra and electrochemical properties of the acene-modified tpa organic dyes are demonstrated. the dye/(tio2)46 anatase nanoparticle systems are also simulated to show the electronic structures at the interface. the results show that from tpa-ac1 to tpa-ac5 with increasing sizes of the acenes, the absorption and fluorescence spectra are systematically broadened and red-shifted, but the oscillator strength and electron injection properties are reduced. the molecular orbital contributions show increasing localization on the bridging acene units from tpa-ac1 to tpa-ac5. from the theoretical examination of some key parameters including free enthalpy related to the electron injection, light-harvesting efficiency, and the shift of semiconductor conduction band, tpa-ac3 with an anthracene moiety demonstrates a balance of the above crucial factors. tpa-ac3 is expected to be a promising dye with desirable energetic and spectroscopic parameters in the dssc field, which is consistent with recent experimental work. this study is expected to deepen our understanding of tpa-based organic dyes and assist the molecular design of new metal-free dyes for the further optimization of dsscs. |
