Abstract
A novel D-pi -A-sigma -A' dendritic dye (D3) was synthesized. The dye molec ule was successfully transferred onto an ITO electrode by the Langmuir-Blod gett (LB) technique and its photoelectric conversion property in LB monolay er films was investigated. The results show that this dye exhibits good pho tocurrent generation that is dependent on the deposited pressure. Its photo current generation quantum yield at 25 mN m(-1) is 0.32%, while that at 6 m N m(-1) is 0.21%. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B,V. All rights reserved.
