“…The dye is a crucial component of DSSCs, greatly influencing the power conversion efficiency and stability of the device [4,5]. Several metal-free organic dyes, including triarylamine dyes [6][7][8][9][10][11], coumarin dyes [12][13][14][15][16], carbazole dyes [17][18][19][20][21], indoline dyes [22][23][24][25], heteroanthracene dyes [26][27][28], tetrahydroquinoline dyes [29,30], N,N-dialkylaniline dyes [31][32][33][34], merocyanine dyes [35,36], hemicyanine dyes [37,38], squarine dyes [39][40][41], perylene dyes [42,43], anthraquinone dyes [44], oligothiophene dyes [45], and boradiazaindacene (BODIPY) dyes [46][47][48], have been tested in DSSCs. These metal free organic dyes are commonly designed in the donor-π-conjugation-acceptor (D-π-A) configuration.…”
