Abstract For low/high concentration, when the distribution of solar radiation is non-uniform over surface cell, it gets heated up non-uniformly which affects cell efficiency. Thus, in present work, three dimensional analysis cells carried out under flux. It involves partial differential equations. silicon cells, studies are available that use numerical techniques (involving iterations) to solve...

Here in, synthesis of Fe2(MoO4)3/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposite was prepared by simple hydrothermal approach and used as high efficient dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The decoration RGO into the Fe2(MoO4)3 proved various physic-chemical studies such XRD, SEM, TEM, Raman, UV, PL BET analysis. individual spherical shaped nanoparticles with sizes in range 25–35 nm uniformly decora...

Mangosteen peel is an inedible portion of a fruit. We are interested in using these residues as components of a dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Carbonized mangosteen peel was used with mangosteen peel dye as a natural counter electrode and a natural photosensitizer, respectively. A distinctive mesoporous honeycomb-like carbon structure with a rough nanoscale surface was found in carbonized ma...

We propose the concept of structured single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) for the applications of heterojunction solar cells and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The structure of SWNTs was controlled and modified by a simple water vapor treatment, which was originally developed by our group. Compared with the graphene-Si solar cell and the SWNT-Si solar cell using the random-oriented SWNT ...

Symmetric asymmetric SQ-dyes have received attention great potential use as SQ-sensitizers application dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC).This review article gives a synopsis advancements on domain DSSC chance used enhance their overall conversion efficiency. Specifi...

Abstract Ensuring high power conversion efficiency, partially or completely replacing Pt electrodes with inexpensive materials is one of the important development directions dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In this work, we have developed a three-component (MWCNTs, carbon black and graphite) (tri-carbon) electrode material for DSSC devices combined advantages electron transfer kinetics MWCNT...

A simple and low-cost fabrication method of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was developed to improve the structure performance photoanode with pressed layer compact TiO2 thin film using spin coating, screen printing, mechanical compression. In this study, four different layers were adopted fabricate photoanodes: a mesoporous nanoparticles (NPs) layer, NPs on film, film. The deposited fluorin...

In this article, silver nanowires (AgNWs) were prepared and introduced into the double-layer photoanode of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Silver with a diameter about 50–60 nm length 1–2 mm by polyol method. The power conversion efficiency DSSC made AgNWs@TiO2 AgNPs@TiO2 composite materials is 6.38%. Compared unmodified DSSC, combined AgNWs AgNPs increased 58.7%. This was mainly due to loc...
