aAbsorption spectra was measured in ethanol solution. bOxidation potential of dyes on TiO2 were measured in CH3CN with 0.1 M (n-C4H9)4NPF6 with a scan rate of 50 mVs−1 (versus NHE). c was determined from intersection of absorption and emission spectra in ethanol. d was calculated by -. ePerformances of DSSCs were measured with 0.18 cm2 working area. Electrolyte: 0.6 M DMPII, 0.05 M I2, 0.1 M LiI, and tert-butylpyridine in acetonitrile. |
