Review of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSCs) Development

Energy consumption is increasing yearly all over the world due to increase in population and demand of energy. The largely depends on a hydroelectric energy supply, thermal electric supply which non-renewable resources. Nevertheless, resources are rapidly decreasing per year rate consumption. quest for discovery another abundant resource has attracted many scientists into development renewable technologies like photovoltaic technology that convert solar radiation electricity. For past several years, different devices inorganic, organic, hybrid cells have been invented using methods application purposes. Moreover, high conversion efficiency silicon cells, cost module complicated production processes involved restricted commercialization as means electricity supply. Among organic Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) most efficient, low easily implemented technology. This review paper focuses clarifying technological meaning structure DSSCs, Various types DSSCs materials, working electrode mechanism DSSC, transparent conductive substrate, nanocrystalline semiconductor film electrode, photosensisitizer (dye), electrolyte, carbon layer zinc oxide (ZnO) layer, zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) benefits application, challenges research upgrade current efficiency.
