Abstract: TiO_2 nanoparticles were modified with a porphyrin derivative, 5-[4-benzoic acid]-10,15,20-tris[3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl]-21H,23H-porphyrin (H_2P-COOH), and fluorescein derivatives, 9-[2-(3-carboxy-9,10-diphenyl)anthryl]-2,7-difluoro-6-hydroxy-3H-xanthen-3-one (DPAX-COOH) and 2′,7′-difluorofluorescein (FL-COOH). The dye-modified TiO_2 nanoparticles were deposited on nanostructured OTE/SnO_2 electrode together with nanoclusters of fullerene (C_<60>) in acetonitrile/toluene (3:1, v/v) using an electrophoretic deposition technique to afford the dye-modified TiO_2 composite electrode denoted as OTE/SnO_2/(dye + C_<60>)_n. The dye-modified TiO_2 composite electrodes have broad as well as high absorbance properties in the visible region, exhibiting the photoactive response under visible light excitation using I_3^-/I^- redox couple. The incident photon to photocurrent efficiency (IPCE) increases in order: OTE/SnO_2/(H_2P)_n < OTE/SnO_2/(H_2P-COO–TiO_2)_n < OTE/SnO_2/(H_2P-COO–TiO_2 + C_<60>). The IPCE value can be further improved by replacing H_2P-COOH with a fluorescein derivative containing an electron donor moiety: DPAX-COOH (DPA: diphenylanthracene). The maximum IPCE value (42%) is obtained for OTE/SnO_2/(DPAX-COO–TiO_2 + C_<60>)_n under the bias of 0.2 V vs. SCE.
