Abstract

Organic dyes with a D-π-A structure have drawn increasing attention as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), due to their rich photophysical properties, easy molecular tailoring, and low-cost production. This review mainly focuses on the relationship between dye structure and photovoltaic properties for organic dyes containing cyanoacrylic acid as both an anchor and an acceptor. This review also introduces different donors and π-conjugation units as building blocks for sensitizer synthesis.
