Acceptor Modified Influence on Tetrahydroquinoline Efficient
Chromophores for Optoelectronic Properties - A First Principle Study
Abstract
In this study, a theoretical investigation of the photoinduced charge
transfer (CT), electron injection, regeneration and Non-linear optical
(NLO) of the A1-A4 structures were carried out for optoelectronic
applications based on tetrahydroquinoline (C1-1) dye. Besides, a
detailed assessment of the association among the electronic structures,
chemical hardness, spectral and photovoltaic (PV) presentation were
defined in DSSCs. Furthermore, this exploration purposes improved the
electron-injection procedure, as well as the light-harvesting efficiency
(LHE) of the dyes. For the research purpose, PO3H2, CONHOH, SO2H and OH
(A1-A4) chromophores effects among the tetrahydroquinoline moieties
related via a thiophene group were used as the electron acceptor group.
The density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT)
calculations were executed on the designing dye molecules. The
presentation of three functional groups (Becke’s three-parameter and
Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP), coulomb-attenuating method-B3LYP (CAM-B3LYP) and
Head-Gordon model (ωB97XD) were analyzed maximum absorption peak for
C1-1. Here, TD-ɷB97XD with the 6-31G(d) combined functional and basis
set were provided reliable effects to the C1-1. Therefore, newly
designed A1-A4 dyes in absorption spectra were followed by TD-ɷB97XD
method. Among these results, A1 dye displays red-shift and higher molar
extinction coefficient than the other dyes and C1-1. It is specified
that the PO3H2 have better PV properties, compared to literature. The
NLO belongings of the A1-A4 sensitizers were derived in the
polarizability and first-order hyperpolarizability. The calculated value
of A1 dye has best for NLO presentation. The theoretically outcomes were
intensely recommended that molecular proposal of the sensitizer has a
vital role for the optoelectronic properties.
