Six cyclic thiourea/urea functionalized triphenylamine-based dyes (AZ1鈥?b>AZ6) containing 2-cyanoacrylic acid as an acceptor and various linkers (phenyl, biphenyl, and bithiophene) were synthesized. They exhibited high photovoltaic performance owing to an improved short-circuit photocurrent density (Jsc) and open-circuit voltage (Voc). Among them, AZ6 bearing a cyclic thiourea group and bithiophene linker showed the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 7.29%, which was comparable to that of N719 (PCE = 7.36%).
