We are presenting our results based on unsymmetrical zinc phthalocyanine by adopting ‘push-pull’ concept for the nanocrystalline dye-sensitized solar cells. Using this sensitizer in combination with nonvolatile organic-solvent-based electrolytes, we obtained a photovoltaic efficiency of 1.52% under standard global AM 1.5 sunlight and compared the results with volatile organic-solvent based electrolyte. These devices exhibit admirable stability when subjected to continuous thermal stress at 60 oC for 1000 h. The sensitizer is thermally stable up to 150 oC and can be useful for roof top applications.

The graphical abstract shows 5 equivalent DSCs in masterplate configuration and their performance stability under thermal stress @85 °C during 4700 h. Ru505/L12 cells resulted the most stable dye/electrolite pair by retain more than 95% of initial efficiency.
