چکیده

Solid state p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-ssDSCs) have been proposed and fabricated for the first time, using the organic dye P1 as the sensitizer on mesoporous NiO and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as the electron conductor. The p-ssDSC has shown an impressive open circuit photovoltage of 620 mV. Femtosecond and nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy has given evidence for sub-ps hole injection from the excited P1 to NiO, followed by electron transfer from P1˙(-) to PCBM.

The Construction and Comparison of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells with Blackberry and N719 Dyes

In a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), the amount of light absorption dependson the design of the pigments, which determines the strength of light absorption and theoptical range of the cell. In this paper, we have constructed and studied two fairly similarpattern of DSSCs in structure. The thickness of TiO2 used for both cells is taken to be 2μm. We have used an industrial N719 dye for one of ...

Synthesis and Application of Two Organic Dyes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

In the present study, two new organic dyes based on indigo were prepared and used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells. To this end, indoxyl was utilized as the electron donor and cyanoacrylic acid as the electron acceptor anchoring groups. These dyes together with their corresponding intermediates were purified and characterized by FTIR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, elemental analysis and UV-Visible...

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...

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...

Investigation 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...
