The photovoltaic performance of quasi-solid-state DSSCs depends on the substituent and the substitution site of the imidazolium ring as well.

Chlorophyll a derivatives were integrated in “all solid-state” dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) with a mesoporous TiO2 electrode and 2′,2′,7,7′-tetrakis[N,N-di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]-9,9′-spirobifluorene as the hole-transport material. Despite modest power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) between 0.26% and 0.55% achieved for these chlorin dyes, a systematic investigation was carried out in order to elucidate their main limitations. To provide a comprehensive understanding of the parameters (structure, nature of the anchoring group, adsorption …) and their relationship with the PCEs, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, optical and photovoltaic studies and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis exploiting the 4-carboxy-TEMPO spin probe were combined. The recombination kinetics, the frontier molecular orbitals of these DSSCs and the adsorption efficiency onto the TiO2 surface were found to be the key parameters that govern their photovoltaic response.

TiO2photoanodes for I2-free solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (ssDSSCs) were prepared from multifunctional new TiO2nanostructures to enhance light harvesting and charge collection efficiency in ssDSSCs using poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)s (PEDOTs).
