Viable Method

Dye adsorption on Ti02and electron transport in Ti02film are the two critical factors in determining efficiency of the the dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Increasing dye adsorption which increases the light harvesting is usually achieved by using nanoporous or nanoparticle Ti02films. Electron transport is determined by the inter-particle resistance of Ti02film. Electrospinning is a viable method for forming porous structure materials with high surface area. In this study, it was found that electrospinning is able to achieve good solar cell performance due to the high electron transport caused by the pores in the Ti02film.

Dye Sensitized

The dye-ability and electron transport property of TiO2 film are the two critical factors in determining efficiency of the the dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Increasing dye adsorption which increases the light harvesting is usually achieved by using nanoporous or nanoparticle TiO2 films. Electron transport is determined by the inter-particle resistance of TiO2 film. Electrospinning is a viable method for forming porous structure materials with high surface area and less immersing time. In this study, it was found that electrospinning is able to achieve good solar cell performance due to the high electron transport caused by the nano-pores in the TiO2 film.
