We employ the 4,4-dihexyl-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b']dithiophene (CPDT) segment as a conjugated spacer to construct an extremely high-molar-absorption-coefficient organic chromophore for dye-sensitized solar cells, exhibiting a high power conversion efficiency of 8.95% measured under irradiation of 100 mW cm(-2) AM1.5G sunlight. Our comparative experiments have proved the prominent merit of employing CPDT instead of the prevailing 2,2'-dithiophene (DT) as the building block for the further dye design. We also have demonstrated that a controllable coassembling of dye molecules and electrolyte components on semiconducting nanocrystals can reduce surface states and inhibit charge recombination synchronously.
