Abstract
The complexes [Ru(dcb)2(L)] (L = 3-(2-phenol)-5-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole (2-ppt),
3-(4-phenol)-5-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole (4-ppt), 3,5-bis(pyrazin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole (bpzt),
3-(2-phenol)-5-(pyrazin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole (2-ppzt) and dcb = 4,4’-(CO2H)2-2,2’-bipyridine)
have been synthesized, spectroscopically characterized and anchored to nanocrystalline TiO2
electrodes for the conversion of light into electricity in regenerative solar cells. The different
efficiencies observed have been rationalized on the basis of an analytical expression relating
the incident photon-to-current-conversion efficiency (IPCE) to the kinetic parameters of the
relevant electron transfer processes involved in the solar cell.
