Two carbazole derivatives (CN, CR) were synthesized and characterized by H-1, C-13 NMR, Mass, IR and cyclic voltammetry measurements. The absorption of CR appears at higher wavelength than CN. Effect of solvents on the absorption and emission properties of the sensitizers was analyzed. Interaction of these sensitizers with TiO2 was studied by using absorption and fluorescence measurements. Ground state complex formation was observed from steady state measurements. Binding constant (K) was calculated from fluorescence quenching measurements. The possibility of electron transfer from the excited state sensitizers to the conduction band of TiO2 was analyzed using energy levels and Rehm-Weller equation. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.
