Abstract Perylene based novel organic sensitizers for the Dye sensitized solar cell applications are investigated by using Density functional theory (DFT) and time dependant density functional theory (TD-DFT).The designed sensitizers have perylene and dimethylamine (DM) and N-N-dimethylaniline(DMA) functionalized perylene for the dssc applications.π-spacers are thiophene andcyanovinyl groups and cyanoacrylic acid is chosen as the acceptor for the designed sensitizers. The studied sensitizers were fully optimized by density functional theory at B3LYP/6-311G basis set on gas phase and DMF phase. The electronic absorption of the sensitizers is analyzed by TD-DFT at B3LYP/6-311G basis set in both gas and DMF phase.

The Mean

The recent interest in the application of density functional theory (DFT) has prompted us to test several functions in molecular geometries of methyl pheophorbides-a (MPa), an important starting material in photodynamic therapy (PDT). In this study, we report on tests for three popular DFT methods: M06-2X, B3LYP, and LSDA. Based on the standard deviation and the mean value, and by using the difference between optimized calculated value and experimental value in geometries, we drew the following conclusions: M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p) attained the smallest standard deviation of difference among the tested DFT methods in terms of bond length, whereas the standard deviation of bond angle in LSDA/6-311+G(d,p) was the smallest. In terms of absolute value, the mean value of LSDA/6-311+G(d,p) calculation was larger than that of M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p). We found that M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p) gave the best performance for MPa in the molecular geometries. The UV-visible spectrum was calculated with time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT). Time-dependent M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p) gave the best performance for MPa in CH2Cl2 solution. In general, TD-DFT calculations in CH2Cl2 solution were more red-shifted compared with those in the solid state.

N,N′-Bis(pyridin-4-yl)formamidine (4-pyfH) was reacted with AuI and AgI metal salts to form a novel tetranuclear complex, tetrakis[μ-N,N′-bis(pyridin-4-yl)formamidinato]digold(I)disilver(I), [Ag2Au2(C11H9N4)2] or [Au x Ag4–x (4-pyf)4] (x = 0–4), 1, which is supported by its metallophilicity. Due to the potential permutation of the coordinated metal ions, six different canonical structures of 1 can be obtained. Complex 1 shows an emission at 501 nm upon excitation at 375 nm in the solid state and an emission at 438 nm upon excitation at 304 nm when dispersed in methanol. Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations confirmed that these emissions can be ascribed to metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) processes. Moreover, the calculations of the optimized structural conformations of the S0 ground state, and the S1 and T1 excited states are discussed and suggest a distorted planar conformation for the tetranuclear Au2Ag2 complex.
