Description

General description

Di-tetrabutylammonium cis-bis(isothiocyanato)bis(2,2′-bipyridyl-4,4′-dicarboxylato)ruthenium(II) (N-719 dye) is a ruthenium based polypyridyl mixture used as a photosensitizer. It acts as a medium for effective absorption of photons and transfer of electrons within the electrolytic solar cells.

Application

N-719 dye is widely used as a sensitizer that can be coated on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates by doctor blade technique, with different photoanode materials like titanium oxide (TiO₂), zinc oxide (ZnO), and gold nanourchin for dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) applications.
