58. The estimation of the complexation constants, K, in each layer of the Half-DPAs has been reported. The K of the first, second, and end layers is almost the same as that between G3 and G4. Thus, we can assume that the K of the first, second, and end layer in TPA-DPA G5 is almost the same as that in TPA-DPA G3 and G4. In other words, the difference in the K between the third and fourth layer becomes small in TPA-DPA G5. For a discussion on the physical basis for isosbestic point shifts in the Half-DPAs, see the following: Yamamoto, K.; Higuchi, M.; Kimoto, A.; Imaoka, T.; Masachika, K. Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn. 2005, 78, 349.
59. In the crowded structure of TPA-DPA G5, a longer time is required until the complexation with the first layer imines is finished.

85. This value is lower than that of Table 2, because the performance of the DSSC using the dendrimer reflects that of the untreated DSSC.
