Abstract

Solar energy shows great potential in the future energy market due to its essentially unlimited supply and renewable, cheap, and clean nature. Among the third-generation solar technologies that are able to harvest light and convert it to electricity are dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), organic solar cells (OSCs), and inorganic-organic hybrid solar cells also known as perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Among the various organic dyes, BODIPY (4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene) dyes have been recognized as promising candidates for solar cells due to their intrinsic advantages such as sharp and strong absorption near 500 nm, which is leading to efficient light-harvesting capability, diverse modification on the core structure at all positions and with any desired functionality, long excited state lifetimes, excellent photo-stability, and good solubility in organic solvents. This chapter will focuse on studies of BODIPY dyes in solar energy technology.
