Recent development of carbon nanotubes materials as counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells
Dye-sensitized solar cells present promising low-cost alternatives to the conventional Silicon (Si)-based solar cells. The counter electrode generally consists of Pt deposited onto FTO plate. Since Pt is rare and expensive metal, nanostructured carbonaceous materials have been widely investigated as a promising alternative to replace it. Carbon nanotubes have shown significant properties such...
متن کاملMaterials Based on Carbazole for Organic Solar Cells Applications. Theoretical Investigations
The research in new organic π-conjugated molecules with specific properties has become one of the most interesting topics in fields of materials chemistry. These materials are promising for optoelectronic device technology such as solar cells. On the other hand, the use of low band gap materials is a viable method for better harvesting of the solar spectrum and increasing its efficiency. The Co...
متن کاملInvestigation of Photovoltaic Properties of 1,8-Naphthalimide Dyes in Dye-sensitized Solar Cells
In this paper we selected two metal-free dyes (Dye 1 and Dye 2) based on 1,8-naphthalimide. The proposed dyes were sensitized from acenaphthene as the starting material by standard reactions. Spectrophotometric measurements of the organic dyes in DMF and on TiO2 substrate were carried out in order to assess changes in the status of the dyes. Maximum absorption wavelengths for Dye...
متن کاملSynthesis and Investigation of Photovoltaic Properties of New Organic Dye in Solar Cells Device
In this paper, we designed and synthesized free-metal dyes based on indoline. The proposed dyes were synthesized from phenothiazine as the starting material by standard reactions. The chemical structure of the synthesized dye was confirmed using FT-IR, 1HNMR and DSC techniques. Spectrophotometric measurements of the organic dyes in acetonitrile and on a TiO2 substrate ...
متن کاملCdTe Photovoltaic Devices for Solar Cell Applications
Cadmium telluride (CdTe) has been recognized as a promising photovoltaic material for thin-film solar cells because of its near optimum bandgap of ~1.5 eV and high absorption coefficient. The energy gap is near optimum for a single junction solar cell and the high absorption coefficient allows films as thin as 2 μm to absorb more than 98% of the above-bandgap radiation. Cells with efficiencies ...
