Hexylthiophene-Functionalized Carbazole Dyes for Efficient Molecular Photovoltaics: Tuning of Solar-Cell Performance by Structural Modification
Zhong-Sheng Wang,Nagatoshi Koumura,Yan Cui,Masabumi Takahashi,Hiroki Sekiguchi,Atsunori Mori,Toshitaka Kubo,Akihiro Furube,Kohjiro Hara +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the photovoltaic performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was improved by adding n-hexyl chains to the thiophene groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palladium-catalyzed C-H homocoupling of bromothiophene derivatives and synthetic application to well-defined oligothiophenes.
Masabumi Takahashi,Kentaro Masui,Hiroki Sekiguchi,Nobuhiko Kobayashi,Atsunori Mori,Masahiro Funahashi,Nobuyuki Tamaoki +6 more
TL;DR: Tolerance of the carbon-bromine bond to the palladium-catalyzed C-H homocoupling results in oligothiophenes bearing C-Br bonds at the terminal thiophene rings, which allow further transformation by the catalysis of a transition-metal complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Substituted carbazole dyes for efficient molecular photovoltaics: long electron lifetime and high open circuit voltage performance
Nagatoshi Koumura,Zhong-Sheng Wang,Masanori Miyashita,Yu Uemura,Hiroki Sekiguchi,Yan Cui,Atsunori Mori,Shogo Mori,Kohjiro Hara +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, substituted carbazole dyes, MK-14 and -16, were designed and synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) employing the I−/I3−redox couple.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the use of bulky alkylphosphines in the Sonogashira coupling with aqueous ammonia
TL;DR: The Sonogashira coupling of terminal alkynes and aryl bromides with aqueous ammonia catalyzed by the in situ formed palladium complex of a bulky alkylphosphine furnishes the coupling product at room temperature.
