The influence of aminothiazole additives in acetonitrile solution of an I–/I3– redox electrolyte on the performance of a bis(tetrabutylammonium) cis-bis(thiocyanato)bis(2,2′-bipyridine-4-carboxylic acid, 4′-carboxylate)ruthenium(II) (N719) dye-sensitized TiO2 solar cell was studied. The current-voltage characteristics were investigated under air-mass 1.5 (100 mW/cm2) for nine different aminothiazole compounds The aminothiazole additives tested had varying influences on the solar cell performance. Most of the additives enhanced the open-circuit voltage, but reduced the short-circuit c.d. of the solar cell. Both the phys. and chem. properties of the aminothiazoles were calculated in order to determine the reasons for influence the additives have on solar cell performance. The larger the calculated partial charge of the nitrogen atom in the thiazole, the higher the open-circuit voltage value. The open-circuit voltage value increased as the dipole moment of aminothiazoles in acetonitrile increased. Moreover, the open-circuit voltage of the solar cells also increased as the size of the aminothiazole mols. decreased. These results suggest that the electron donating ability of the aminothiazole additives influenced the interaction with the TiO2 photoelectrode, which altered the dye-sensitized solar cell performance.
