چکیده

A pyrene photoluminescent layer is coated on the front side of a dye-sensitized solar cell to enhance the power conversion efficiency. The power conversion efficiency of the dye-sensitized solar cell coated with a pyrene photoluminescent layer improves from 9.12 ± 0.06% to 10.30 ± 0.11% (an improvement of 12.94%).

Fabrication of dye sensitized solar cells with a double layer photoanode

Dye sensitized solar cell was fabricated from a double layer photoanode. First, TiO2 nanoparticles  were synthesized by hydrothermal method. These TiO2 NPs were deposited on FTO glasses by electrophoretic deposition  method in applied voltage of 5 V and EPD time of 2.5-10 min. Then TiO2 hollow spheres (HSs) were synthesized by sacrificed template method with Carbon Spheres as template and TTIP ...

Influence of TiO2 layer thickness as photoanode in Dye Sensitized Solar Cells

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are categorized as some of inexpensive thin-film solar cells. The basis and foundation of these cells is a semiconductor that consists of an electrolyte and a light-sensitive anode. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a semiconductor that plays the role of anode and is the main constituent of these cells. In this paper, we have addressed the functionality and performan...

Application of azo dye as sensitizer in dye-sensitized solar cells

An azo dye used as photosensitizers in Dye-sensitized solar cells DSSCs. Azo dyes economically superior to organometallic dyes because they are color variation and cheap. The spectrophotometric evaluation of an azo dye in solution and on a TiO2 substrate show that the dye form J-aggregation on the nanostructured TiO2 substrate. Oxidation potential measurements for used azo dyes ensured an energ...
