Modular synthesis of simple cycloruthenated complexes with state-of-the-art performance in p-type DSCs

Abstract

An adaptable strategy to introduce different anchors to [Ru(N⁁N)₂(C⁁N)]⁺ dyes is described; use of a phosphonic acid anchor on NiO leads to p-type DSCs with <italic>J</italic>_SC = 3.38 mA cm⁻² and PEC of 0.116%.
