Abstract

A family of four bipodal triphenylamine-based dyes, three of which incorporate two triphenylamine (TPA) units, have been studied to understand their potential in light-harvesting applications. Compared to previously reported TPA-based dyes, these exhibit improved device performance. Theoretical calculations correlate excited state dipole moments to device efficiency.
