They yield promising power conversion efficiencies of up to 5.5 and high open circuit voltages up to 0.82 V. This work demonstrates that the BDF chromophore acts as an effective donor in organic sensitizers.enphotophysical properties redox conversion light500 - Science::570 - Life sciences; biology500 - Science::540 - ChemistryBenzo1,2-b:4,5-b 'difuran-based sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cellsarticle10.7892/boris.4636810.1039/C3ra43669a
