Influence of nanostructured TiO2 film thickness on photoelectrode structure and performance of flexible Dye- Sensitized Solar Cells
A commercial Ti-Nanoxide was deposited on In-doped SnO2 (ITO) polymer substrates by tape casting technique with different thicknesses (7, 14 and 36μm) to be used as photoelectrode in flexible dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Ruthenium dye was adsorbed on each TiO2 film for 24 h. The resulting photoelectrodes were used to form flexible DSSCs in combination with...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of Ag-doped TiO2 nanostructure and investigation of its application as dye-sensitized solar cell
A new strategy for enhancing the efficiency of TiO2 dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) by doping foreign ion into TiO2 lattice via sol-gel process is reported. DSSCs are based on a semiconductor (i.e., TiO2), formed between a photo-sensitized anode and an electrolyte. In order to reach high conversion efficiency, it is important to increase the electron injection and optical absorption. One pro...
متن کاملThe investigation on different light harvesting layers and their sufficient effect on the photovoltaic characteristics in dye sensitized solar cell
Titanium dioxide-based nanofibers (TiO2 nanofiber) were prepared by an electrospinning technique. The electrospun composite fibers were synthesized at different concentrations of titanium isopropoxide (25.35, 50.69, 76.05 wt%) and calcinated at different temperatures (450 oC, 650 oC and 850 oC) for 2 h. The diameters of nanofibers decreased by increas...
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 کاملInvestigation of Electrochemically Deposited and Chemically Reduced Platinum Nanostructured Thin Films as Counter Electrodes in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
In this paper, we demonstrated that platinum (Pt) counter electrodes (CEs) fabricated using electrochemical deposition and chemical reduction can replace conventional high-temperature thermally decomposed Pt electrodes. In this study, Pt electrodes were fabricated using thermal decomposition, electrochemical deposition, and chemical reduction, and the influence of the different Pt counter elect...
