ABSTRACT
Dye-sensitized solar cells have been assembled using a sequential approach: a TiO(2) surface was functionalized with an anchoring ligand, followed by metallation with Zn(OAc)(2) or ZnCl(2), and subsequent capping with a chromophore functionalized 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine; the DSCs exhibit surprisingly good efficiencies confirming the effectiveness of the new strategy for zinc-based DSC fabrication.
