Abstract

We have designed a self-assembly ZnP-ZnPA, based on a porphyrin ZnP bearing 1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine unit, and anchoring porphyrin ZnPA. The assembly with ZnP-ZnPA was immobilized on nanostructured TiO2 electrode surfaces. The assembled structures were characterized by transmission electron microscopy. The optical, photovoltaic, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency were measured. The results revealed that the ZnP-ZnPA device had better photovoltaic performance than ZnPA and possessed a higher shortcircuit photocurrent density (JSC = 6.04) but a lower open-circuit photovoltage (VOC = 0.51) than anchoring ZnPA. Moreover, our previously reported assembly (ZnP-A1) as reference, the assembly device ZnP-ZnPA had better η (2.24%) and FF (72.7%).
