Abstract
A pyrene based chalcone (PyMe) has been prepared by Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction. The proposed structure was proceeded for characterization analysis of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopic (FTIR) and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) studies. The analysis of cyclic voltammetry (CV) performed has determined the appropriated position of HOMO and LUMO energy level for electron injection and dye regeneration in DSSC. The Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) study has confirmed the existence of PyMe based on the distribution and composition of the elements on the TiO2 layer, respectively. The Donor–π–Acceptor (D–π–A) structural chromophores with methoxy (-OCH3) attachment in PyMe has also contribute to the power conversion efficiency of DSSC.
