Solar fuels production is a cornerstone in the development of emerging sustainable energy conversion and storage technologies. Light-induced H2 production from water represents one of the most crucial challenges to produce renewable fuel. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are being investigated in this process, due to the ability to assemble new structures with the use of suitable photoactive building blocks. However, the identification of the reaction intermediates remains elusive, having negative impacts in the design of more efficient materials. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new MOF prepared with the use of bismuth and dithieno[3,2-b:2′,3′-d]thiophene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (DTTDC), an electron-rich linker with hole transport ability. By combining theoretical studies and time-resolved spectroscopies, such as core hole clock and laser flash photolysis measurements, we have completed a comprehensive study at different time scales (fs to ms) to determine the effect of competitive reactions on the overall H2 production. We detect the formation of an intermediate radical anion upon reaction of photogenerated holes with an electron donor, which plays a key role in the photoelectrocatalytic processes. These results shed new light on the use of MOFs for solar fuel production.

A one-pot synthesis of 2,6-dibromodithieno[3,2-b;2′,3′-d] thiophene (dibromo-DTT, 4) was developed. A key step was bromodecarboxylation of DTT-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, obtained by saponification of the diester 1. The donor-acceptor dye DAHTDTT (13), based o

We report organic photodetectors (OPDs) exhibiting high photocurrent density (Jph), low dark current density (Jd), and broadband external quantum efficiency (EQE) based on three push-pull type D-π-A small molecule donors (H1, H2, and H3) with different π-

PURPOSE: An organic dye, photoelectric diode including the same and dye-sensitized solar battery are provided to have an absorbing band in long wavelength. CONSTITUTION: An organic dye is represented by chemical formula 1. A photoelectric diode includes porous oxide semiconductor membrane which includes the organic dye. A dye-sensitized solar cell comprises a first electrode, a second electrode which is formed on one side of the first electrode and includes a light absorptive layer, and electrolyte buried in a space between the first and second electrodes.
