Synthesis, characterization and photoconversion study of [Ru(II)(dcbpy)(terpy)Cl]Cl.3H_2O, [Ru(II)(dcbpy)(terpy)SCN]SCN.3H_2O and [Ru(II)(dcbpy)(terpy)CN]CN.3H_2O systems

摘要

The preparation, characterization and photoconversion properties of [Ru(II)(dcbpy)(terpy)X]X·3H_2O where X = Cl, SCN, CN were carried out. For the fabrication of a solar cell, TiO2 and platinum coated conducting glasses were used. The performance of the complexes for the conversion of solar radiation into electricity was found to be good, with maximum output voltage (V_(oc)) and short circuit current (I_(sc)).
