Abstract: The first mixed films of porphyrin and fullerene with hydrogen bonding on tin oxide (SnO2) as well as indium tin oxide electrolyte is reported to reveal efficient photocurrent generation. The results show that hydrogen bonding is a highly promising methodology for the construction of molecular photoelectrochemical devices.
