Abstract :
The effect of N-(2-alkoxyphenyl) group in double rhodanine indoline dye on the performance of zinc oxide dye-sensitized solar cell was examined. Both Jsc and Voc were improved by introducing long alkoxy group due to prevention of H-aggregates formation and inhibition of electron recombination from zinc oxide surface to electrolyte.
