- In this article, the viability of the first push pull (nitrophenyl and hexyl-thiophene as acceptor and donor unit respectively) sensitizer functionalized with acetylacetone (acac) anchoring group was assessed for application in p-type dye sensitized solar cells (Ni0-based). An effective synthetic strategy to introduce the acac directly to an aryl moiety was developed. Then, the UV visible absorption, emission and electrochemical properties of this new sensitizer were determined. FT-IR spectroscopy revealed an effective binding of the acac group to NiO surface while time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations predicted a strong charge-transfer transition with no component of the LUMO centred on the acac. Ultrafast hole injection (<200 fs) from the dye excited state into the valence band (VB) of NiO was experimentally demonstrated by transient absorption spectroscopy studies. It was also shown that excitation of the sensitizer leads to the formation of a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) state. Finally, the photovoltaic performances of this dye were investigated in NiO based solar cells using the iodide/triiodide electrolyte. We measured promising power conversion efficiencies higher than that of the coumarin 043 benchmark reference albeit with a weaker light harvesting efficiency.
