Two new bi-anchoring organic sensitizers of type D-(π-A)2 comprising the identical π-spacer (thiophene-2-acetonitrile) and electron acceptor (malonic acid) but different aryl amine as electron donors (diphenylamine and carbazole) were synthesized, characterized and fabricated metal free dye-sensitized solar cell devices. The intra molecular charge transfer property and electrochemical property of these dyes were investigated by molecular absorption, emission, cyclic voltammetric experiments and in addition, quantum chemical calculation studies were performed to provide sufficient driving force for the electron injection into the conduction band of TiO2 which leads to efficient charge collection. Among the fabricated devices, carbazole based device exhibits high current conversion efficiency (η = 4.7%) with a short circuit current density (JSC) 15.3 mA/cm2, an open circuit photo voltage (VOC) of 0.59 V and a fill factor of 0.44 under AM 1.5 illumination (85 mW/cm2) compared to diphenylamine based device.

New bi-anchoring donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) metal-free organic dyes based on diphenylamine, carbazole as donor, cyano vinyl biphenyl as a π-linker and cyanoacrylic acid, rhodanine-3-acetic acid as acceptor/anchor are synthesized, characterized and used for the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications. Among the fabricated DSSCs, device based on the carbazole as donor, cyano vinyl biphenyl as a π-linker and cyanoacrylic acid as acceptor exhibits a high power conversion efficiency of 2.37% with a short-circuit current density of 5.18 mAcm-2, an open-circuit photo voltage of 0.766 V and a fill factor of 50.8% under AM1.5 illumination (85 mWcm -2) compared to other devices.
