title: A novel organic sensitizer combined with a cobalt complex redox shuttle for dye-sensitized solar cells.
abstract: A novel donor-π-acceptor organic dye (HIQ7) was used in dye-sensitized solar cells with a cobalt redox shuttle. The cells showed broad incident monochromatic photon-to-current conversion efficiency spectra covering the entire visible range and extending into the near-infrared region.
