- Current-voltage profiles of photomerocyanine/cyclodextrin-containing dye-sensitized solar cells were obtained under 570-nm irradiation.
- Photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cell was increased by inclusion effect of cyclodextrin.
- The IPCE value of photomerocyanine/cyclodextrin-containing dye-sensitized solar cell was decreased by using visible light treatment.
- This work demonstrated the photoresponsivity of dye-sensitized solar cell containing a photomerocyanine/cyclodextrin.
The fabrication, photovoltaic conversion, and photo-response of dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) containing a noncarboxylated spiropyran 1,3,3-trimethylindolino-β-naphthopyrylospiran (1) and carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrin sodium salt (CM-β-CD) were investigated for the first time. In fact, we found the adsorption of photomerocyanine form (PMC) of 1 and inclusion complexes between the PMC and CM-β-CD (PMC/CM-β-CD) to the TiO2 surface. The formation of PMC/CM-β-CD was confirmed by fluorescence spectroscopy. The incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of the PMC-containing DSSC obtained 4.1% under 570-nm light irradiation, and the highest IPCE reached 11.1% by inclusion effect of CM-β-CD. Similar, the fillfactor and the open-circuit voltage were improved by CM-β-CD layer. The IPCE value of PMC/CM-β-CD-containing DSSC was decreased by visible light treatment, and it was considered that decrease of IPCE values are attributed to the formation of PMC isomer. Therefore, we demonstrated the photovoltaic conversion and photoresponsivity of the DSSC by incorporating a noncarboxylated PMC with inclusion effect of CM-β-CD layer.
