Abstract
We report on synthesis and characterization of binaphthyl containing Schiff base Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes as promising photosensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). Based on theoretical and experimental data, the possibility of their application in DSSC was confirmed. To our knowledge, we find dye performance of complex is steric and rigid structure widely spread to efficiency. The spatial and electronic structures of the complexes were studied by means of the quantum chemical modeling using DFT and TD-DFT approaches. The adsorption energies of the complexes on TiO2 cluster were calculated and appeared to be very close in value. The Zn(II) complex has the biggest value of molar extinction.
