Suitably designed symmetric dyes can be used in dye-sensitized solar cells to reduce the charge recombination rate by two to three orders of magnitude. If the electron coupling between the electrode and the dye is mediated by a conjugated linker, it is possible to design dyes for which the HOMO of the dye is not coupled to the semiconductor.
