Development of a computational chemistry scheme for testing the utility of synthetic bacteriochlorin in dye- sensitized solar cells

A computational chemistry scheme, based on density functional theory, was developed for in silico testing of a few bacteriochlorin properties relevant to dye-sensitized solar cells. These properties included electronic excitation wavelengths, molecular orbital energy levels, and oscillator strengths...
