  • FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate current (J sc ) and photoelectric conversion efficiency ( ⁇ ) for thicknesses of 8/M and 20/M in 20nm TiO 2 when DCA is added and is not added to the compound lb-2 having the highest J sc value.
  • the compound lb-2 according to the present invention not using the additive DCA has better current (J sc ) and photoelectric conversion efficiency ( ⁇ ) than that using the DCA.
  • An organic dye according to the present invention provides better molar extinction coefficient, J sc (short-cir ⁇ it photocurrent density) and photoelectric conversion efficiency than a conventional metal complex dye to sharply improve efficiency of a solar cell, has a high current and better photoelectric conversion efficiency than an existing organic dye by preventing ⁇ - ⁇ stacking even without an additive.
