    In this study, a cross-linked boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) photocatalyst containing a carbazole donor group designed for photoelectrocatalytic carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction is synthesized and characterized. The BODIPY-based system, coated onto a platinum surface, is evaluated for its electrochemical and photocatalytic performance under light illumination. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry measurements reveals enhanced photocurrent responses, confirming the catalyst's ability to effectively drive CO2 reduction. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis identifies the formation of ethanol (C2H5OH) as a major reaction product, showing that its yield increased with extended reaction times. Additionally, the photocatalyst demonstrates remarkable performance with significantly increasing turnover numbers (TON) and turnover frequencies (TOF) over time, indicating stable and sustained catalytic activity. With a Faradaic efficiency of 34.79% at a potential of -1.15 V, this BODIPY system exhibits both high activity and long-term stability. The combination of efficient electron transfer and visible light absorption by the carbazole-BODIPY donor-acceptor structure positions this system as a highly promising candidate for sustainable CO2 conversion applications.

    Light-Induced Performance Enhancement of Supercapacitors through Thiol-Ene Click Surface Functionalization of Thienothiophene-BODIPY Porous Polymers
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2025) Ozdemir, Mucahit; Ulucay, Sude; Sevimli, Esra; Altinisik, Sinem; Koksoy, Baybars; Yalcin, Bahattin; Koyuncu, Sermet
    Photoassisted supercapacitors are emerging as next-generation energy storage devices that synergistically combine light harvesting and electrochemical energy storage. BODIPY-based semiconductors, known for their strong light absorption, tunable electronic properties, and photostability, have recently attracted attention as efficient photoactive components in such systems. This study investigates the potential use of cross-linked thieno[3,2-b]thiophene-BODIPY polymer as an electrode material for photoassisted supercapacitors, prepared through a surface functionalization approach using thiol-ene click chemistry. The polymer exhibited broad-band absorption and a low band gap due to extended conjugation, as confirmed by UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, along with comprehensive optical, electrochemical, and morphological characterization. DFT calculations showed that the HOMO-LUMO energy gap narrows under illumination, indicating improved charge transport. Cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements confirmed that the cross-linked polymer offers high capacitance, low internal resistance, and long cycle stability. In terms of supercapacitor performance, a photoinduced enhancement of up to 50% in specific capacitance was observed under light. At a current density of 1.0 A/g, the specific capacitance increased from 240 F/g in the dark to 362 F/g under illumination. Stability tests conducted over 2000 cycles demonstrated that the supercapacitor retained 90% of its initial capacitance.
