example 1

[0191] Example 1: Fabrication of dye-sensitized solar cells

[0192] Dye (5) was synthesized according to Reaction Scheme 1 below. Referring to Reaction Scheme 1, the synthesis of dye (5) will be described in more detail. Iodine, periodic acid, distilled water, sulfuric acid and acetic acid were added to fluorene (Aldrich Company, St. Louis, Missouri), and then reacted at 90° C. until the color of iodine in the resulting mixed solution disappeared. After the reaction was completed, excess distilled water was added to the mixed solution, followed by filtering the mixed solution with a Buchner funnel. The filtrate was rinsed with water, and the filtrate was dried. A small amount of acetone was added to the dry product and kept at low temperature to obtain pale yellow 2-iodo-9-fluorene (5a).

[0193] Subsequently, tetrahydrofuran was added to the prepared 2-iodo-9-fluorene (5a), and then, potassium tert-butoxide was slowly added to the resulting mixture at 0°C...

[0203] Example 2: Fabrication of dye-sensitized solar cells

[0204] Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) catalyst was added to N,N-bis(9,9-dimethylfluoren-2-yl)-4-bromoaniline according to Example 1 as shown in Reaction Scheme 2 below In (5c), tetrahydrofuran was added to 2,2'-thiophene (manufactured by Aldrich). Next, n-butyllithium was added to the resulting mixture at -78°C to prepare a mixed solution. The mixed solution was kept at room temperature, and trimethyl borate (manufactured by Aldrich) was added to the mixed solution. Aqueous 5-{(2,2'-thiophene)boronic acid} (5f) aqueous solution (KOH) was added to the mixed solution. The resulting mixed solution was kept at 90°C for 15 hours. The mixed solution was cooled to room temperature, and after all the solvent in the solution was removed, it was separated by chromatography to obtain a light yellow solid 2-[N,N-bis(9,9-dimethylfluoren-2-yl)benzene ]-5,5'-thiophene (5g). Here, an eluent was prepared by mixing ethyl...

[0210] Example 3: Fabrication of dye-sensitized solar cells

[0211] A dye-sensitized solar cell was fabricated according to the same method as in Example 1, except that 5 mM of deoxycholic acid of the following Chemical Formula 12 was additionally added to the dye dispersion.
