Design, synthesis and applications of new organic sensitizers for non-conventional photovoltaic cells

The aim of the project is the design, computational characterization and synthesis of new organic dyes to be used for the production of DSSC solar cells that could result to be competitive in comparison with the already available Silicon systems. A life cycle analysis of all the steps constituting the whole DSSC production process on a lab scale is performed to achieve a systematic and complete assessment of environmental impacts and burdens (in energetic and environmental terms) deriving from the process.
