title: Synthesis and photovoltaic properties of efficient organic dyes containing the benzo[b]furan moiety for solar cells.
abstract: New organic dyes composed of the benzo[b]furan donor, thiophene-conjugated bridge, and cyano acrylic acid acceptor have been newly synthesized through the one-pot coupling cyclization key step. Nanocrystalline TiO2 dye-sensitized solar cell was fabricated using this dye. A solar-to-electric conversion efficiency of 6.65% and 4.70% is achieved with 1 and 2, respectively.
