Electron-donating perylene tetracarboxylic acids for dye-sensitized solar cells.
Novel perylene imide derivatives with both electron-donating and bulky substituents have been synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cells. The power conversion efficiency reached 2.6%, which is the highest value among perylene-sensitized TiO2 solar cells.
