| Abstract | A new extended thermo-stable high molar extinction coefficient bipyridyl ruthenium(II) complex “cis-Ru(4,4’-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2,2’-bipyridine)(Ln)(NCS)$_{2}$ H101”, where Ln = 4,4’-dicarboxylic acid-2,2’-bipyridine; was synthesized and characterized by $^{1}$H-NMR, FT-IR and ESI-MASS spectroscopes. The H101 sensitized solar cell constructed with an active area of 0.54 cm$^{2}$ in combination with an ionic liquid electrolyte exhibited broader photocurrent action spectrum with solar-to-electric energy conversion efficiency (η) of 5.89 ( $\textbf{\textit{J}}_{\rm SC} =$ 12.14 mA/cm$^{2}$, $\textbf{\textit{V}}_{\rm OC} =$ 690 V, fill factor = 0.699) under Air Mass (AM) 1.5 sunlight, while the reference ‘cis-Ru(4,4’-dinonyl-2,2’-bipyridine)(Ln)(NCS)$_{2}$’, Z907 sensitized solar cell exhibited η-value of 5.17% ( $\textbf{\textit{J}}_{\rm SC} =$ 11.93 mA/cm$^{2}$, $\textbf{\textit{V}}_{\rm OC} =$ 650 V, fill factor = 0.666). TGA analysis of H101 showed extended thermal-stability and under continuous light exposure and aging at 55°C, the DSSC retained 85% of its initial η-value, while under comparable conditions Z907 sensitized solar cell retained 88%. As compared to 4,4’-dinonyl-2,2’-bipyridine in Z907, the new ancillary bipyridyl ligand ‘4,4’-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2,2’-bipyridine’ in H101 shifts the absorption bands remarkably towards blue. The Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Time-Dependent DFT excited state calculations of the new sensitizer show that the first three HOMOs have t2g character with sizeable mixing from the NCS ligands with π-bonding orbitals of 4,4’-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2,2’-bipyridine. The LUMO is a π*-orbital localized on the 4,4-dicarboxylic acid-2,2’-bipyridine and higher un-occupied frontier orbitals have π*-combinations with 4,4’-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2,2’-bipyridine. Graphical Abstract A new extended thermo-stable high molar extinction coefficient bipyridyl ruthenium(II) complex “cis-Ru(4,4’-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2,2’-bipyridine)(Ln)(NCS)2 H101” (where Ln = 4,4’-dicarboxylic acid-2,2’-bipyridine) was synthesized. The test cell DSSC constructed from H101 sensitizer with an active area of 0.54 cm2 in combination with an ionic liquid electrolyte exhibited broader photocurrent action spectrum with solar-to-electric energy conversion efficiency (η) of 5.89 (J SC = 12.14 mA/cm2, V OC = 690 V, fill factor = 0.699) under Air Mass (AM) 1.5 sunlight. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
