Abstract

Three novel donor-acceptor-π-acceptor-type compounds (WS5, WS6, and WS7) were synthesized and investigated in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) exploring the effect of conjugated linkers on device performance. The new dyes showed strong light-harvesting ability in the visible region with relatively high molar absorption coefficients (>21 800 M
