Current Research Interest

Considering the current research interest in Organic / Inorganic (ZnO) hybrid solar cells structures in developing advanced photovoltaic devices, three different types of solar cell structures are proposed. In the proposed structures, hybrid solar cell composed of ZnO nanoparticles are used as an electron-acceptor material and PEDOT:PSS is intruded in between the nanoparticles, which reported to possesses power-conversion efficiency in excess of 8%. The use of p-ZnO layer results to improve the device performance on the rigid substrate. The power-conversion efficiency of the developed solar cell was found to be as high as 10% when measured under AM 1.5G illumination. Further, simulations have been carried out whose results are in line with experimental results.

Solar Cell Material

Solar cells with a High efficiency and desire characteristics are modelled by considering the characteristics of the materials. An earth-abundant material Cu2ZnSn2(S, Se)4 (CZTSSe) could be a wise choice for the solar cell material with a band gap of 1.24ev. In this paper, we made a model and try to represent an analysis of effect on J-V characteristics and quantum efficiency of CdS/CZTSSe based solar cell during varying material and optical properties includes emitter width, carrier life time and resistances. From this model we can easily understand the effect of material and optical properties and graphical analysis of proposed solar cell.

AbstractThe demands of ecofriendly technologies to produce a reliable supply of renewable energy on a large scale remains a challenge. A solar cell based on DSSC (Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell) technology is environmentally friendly and holds the promise of a high efficiency in converting sunlight into electricity. This manuscript describes the development of a light harvester system as a main part of a DSSC. Congo red dye has been functionalized with metals (Fe, Co, Ni), forming a series of complexes that serve as a novel light harvester on the solar cell. Metal-congo red complexes have been characterized by UV-VIS and FTIR spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The performance of metal complexes in capturing photons from sunlight has been investigated in a solar cell device. The incorporation of metals to congo red successfully improved of the congo red efficiency as follows: Fe(II)-congo red, Co(II)-congo red and Ni(II)-congo red had efficiencies of 8.17%, 6.13% and 2.65%, respectively. This research also discusses the effect of metal ions on the ability of congo red to capture energy from sunlight.
