Sensitized Solar Cells

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) have been developed as a promising photovoltaic cell type in recent decades because of their low cost, environmental friendliness, ease of fabrication, and suitability for a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications, especially under diverse shaded and low-light condition. They are typically composed of three main components: a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) substrate-based working electrode with wide-bandgap semiconductors and dye sensitizer molecules, an electrolytic mediator based on redox couple species, and a TCO-based counter electrode consisting of catalyst materials. The development of intrinsic and functional organic, inorganic, metal oxide, composite, and carbon-based materials has been intensively studied to enhance the efficiency of DSSCs. A simple and low-cost fabrication process that uses natural products is also considered essential for further large-scale production. In this article, we review the fabrication of various functional materials and their effects on DSSC performance.

Three polymethine dyes of various structures were checked for their potential to be used as sensitising dyes for TiO 2. Based on the absorption spectral data and cyclic voltammetric redox potential, the lower unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy was calculated. It was higher than the conductance band edge energy of anatase TiO 2 for all the studied dyes, meaning that they all may act as efficient sensitizers for various functional materials to be used in the broad spectrum visible-light solar cells, energy conversion systems and other similar applications.
