Abstract
A new ruthenium(II)–polypyridine complex (1) having a 2,6-bis(4-carboxyquinolin-2-yl)pyridine ligand was synthesized as a sensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). This complex exhibited remarkable light-harvesting properties in the near-IR region. DSCs sensitized with 1 showed a 35% incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) at 900 nm.
