In the present work, geometries, electronic structures, photovoltaic and optical properties have been carried out on a series of structures formation of phthalocyanine and Titanylphthalocyanine dyes, which are replaced by several subgroup. A density functional theory (DFT) approach together with hybrid function (B3LYP) at SDD basis set was used for the ground state properties in the gas phase. The time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT)/ B3LYP was used to investigate the excitation properties of new dyes and analyzed the trends in their optical and redox characteristics. Theoretical principles of HOMO and LUMO energy levels of dyes is requisite in analyzing organic solar cells, thus, HOMO, LUMO levels, open circuit voltage, energy gap, light harvestings efficiency, electron regeneration and electron injection have been calculated and discussed. The outcome of the efficiency, the considered dyes explain absorption energy and wavelength properties that correspond to the solar spectrum requirements. According to results, all the considered materials have a good property and possibility of electron injection procedure from the dyes to conduction band of TiO2, PC60BM or PC60BM. As a result, the molecular changes affect the electronic properties of dye molecules for solar cells. Also, a study of new dyes sensitizers showed that designed materials will be excellent sensitizers. Theoretical designing will prae a way for experimentalists to synthesize the efficient sensitizers for solar cells clearer.
