Co-adsorbing molecules attain certain control in the surrounding of the dyes leading to enhanced efficiencies mainly by affecting the recombination of the photogenerated electrons and aggregation of dyes. Bile acids such as deoxycholic acid (DOA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDOA) yield competitive photovoltaic parameters. We harness the steroid backbone of bile acids to chemically modified it at its R3 position attaching sterically demanding amide groups rather than typically terminal hydroxyl groups (3β-position) as in DOA and CDOA. All possible resultant effects on the performance in complete DSSCs were studied by current density-voltage curves (e.g., percentage of efficiency, %η; open-circuit voltage, Voc; short-circuit photocurrent, Jsc; and fill factor, FF), incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE), and a set of interfacial data by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Our co-adsorbates stand out by enhancing the conversion efficiencies, being in some cases competitive with photovoltaic parameters of DOA and CDOA. [-]
