Effects of Sensitization with Natural Pigments on the Performance of Dye-sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC)
Three natural pigments including wild iris, black pomegranate bark and black grapes were used as sensitizer in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on TiO2 nanoparticles. The results showed that the DSSC made of black pomegranate bark was more efficient than the other cells due to its strong bonding with TiO2 nanoparticles. Longer electron lifetime, lower electron recombination, and lower...
متن کاملEffect of Hydroquinone Dderivatives in Electrolytes on Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Performance
New kinds of hydroquinone derivatives were synthesized and along with a azo dye applied as additives in the iodide/iodine redox electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells and their effect on the short-circuit photocurrent of dye sensitized solar cells was investigated. Addition of 0.05 M a hydroquinone derivative in the electrolyte comprising 0.5 M 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide (MPII) and...
متن کاملElectron Transfer in Dye-Sensitized Nanocrystalline TiO2 Solar Cell
The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have been regarded as one of the most promising new generation solar cells. Tremendous research efforts have been invested to improve the efficiency of solar energy conversion which is generally determined by the light harvesting efficiency, electron injection efficiency and undesirable electron lifetime. In this review, various characteristics of dye-...
متن کاملFabrication of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell Using Nanocrystalline TiO2 and Optical Characterization of Photo-Anode
Anatase phase containing nano-crystallite TiO2 thin film is prepared by the peptization of modified Ti-isopropoxide sol using HNO3 as peptizing agent. The resulting sol is concentrated in a rotary evaporator bath. TiO2 film is deposited on ITO substrate by spin coating process. The compact film is annealed at 450 ̊C and 500 ̊C for optical studies. The subsequently it is modified as photo-anodes i...
متن کاملPeripheral Hole Acceptor Moieties on an Organic Dye Improve Dye‐Sensitized Solar Cell Performance
Investigation of charge transfer dynamics in dye-sensitized solar cells is of fundamental interest and the control of these dynamics is a key factor for developing more efficient solar cell devices. One possibility for attenuating losses through recombination between injected electrons and oxidized dye molecules is to move the positive charge further away from the metal oxide surface. For this ...
