Abstract
The need to develop inexpensive renewable energy sources continues to stimulate new approaches to production of efficient, low-cost photovoltaic devices. Although inorganic semiconductors (silicon, amorphous silicon, gallium arsenide, and sulfide salts) have been the primary focus, the photosensitivity and the third generation of photovoltaic devices made with organic materials have also been explored, including conjugated polymers, organic dyes, stacked discostic liquid crystals, and self-assembling organic semiconductors. In this dissertation, we study three topics as follow about the third generation of solar cells:
1. Design and Synthesis of Trithiophene-Bound Excited-State Intramolecular Proton Transfer Dye: It’s Enhancement on the Performance of Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells
2. Conceptual Design of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell toward Recognition; A Paradigm on Metal Ion Recognition
3. Organic Dyes with Remarkably High Absorptivity; All Solid-State Dye Sensitized Solar Cell and Role of Fluorine Substitution
