Abstract
Correction for ‘New di-anchoring A–π-D–π-A configured organic chromophores for DSSC application: sensitization and co-sensitization studies’ by Praveen Naik et al., Photochem. Photobiol. Sci., 2018, DOI: 10.1039/c7pp00351j.
The authors would like to correct an error in the synthetic procedure for compound E3, as the temperature reported in the published article is incorrect. The correct temperature is 60 °C, and the relevant sentence should read:
The mixture was dissolved in 20 mL of absolute methanol and then stirred at 60 °C for 12 h under an argon atmosphere.
The authors would also like to correct Table 2, as the data reported in this table are incorrect in the published article. The correct Table 2 is shown below.
| Sensitizer | CDCA (mM) | J SC (mA cm−2) | V OC (V) | FF (%) | η (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1 | 10 | 6.359 ± 0.012 | 0.599 ± 0.001 | 62.5 ± 0.2 | 2.383 ± 0.008 |
| E2 | 10 | 1.369 ± 0.003 | 0.510 ± 0.003 | 59.8 ± 0.4 | 0.417 ± 0.002 |
| E3 | 10 | 1.450 ± 0.015 | 0.484 ± 0.001 | 56.8 ± 0.1 | 0.399 ± 0.003 |
The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
