There are various types of solar cells reported and the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) possessing the advantages like low-cost, simple process, multi- color, penetration, flexible, has become a key technology to developed the present solar cells. In DSSC, the photosensitizer dye used plays an important role of light absorption and helps to gain higher efficiency. To date,the organic and inorganic dyes of dye sensitized solar cell are popular and various. We design the new class of D-π-A typed organic dye with benzoimidazole derivatives 2-(2-pyridyl)-benzoimidazole and 2-methyl-benzoimidazol to form a monomer or dimer after coordinating to Zn(II) ion.In addition,we compare the influences on metal ion, like stability and efficiency. We believe that such kind of innovative design principle will provide a new direction to the modification of photosensitizers to help gain higher light absorption and enhancement in overall conversion efficiency.
