Fabrication and characterization of dye-sensitized solar cells module based on novel organic dyes

Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSCs) have aroused intense interest over the past decade owing to their low cost and simple preparation procedure. The screen-printing technique is the simple procedure for preparation and improvement of the DSSCs performance. The efficiency of DSSCs device could be improved by using the suitable TiO2 paste and enough amount of TiO2 layer. The novel organic dye is a choice of sensitizer as application in DSSCs performance due to the advantage of simple synthesized, low cost, non toxicity and easy molecular designed. The studies show the show the operation of organic sensitizer in DSSCs test cells and applied to prototype cells. The improvement of DSSCs operation by modifying the light absorbing or much easier approach, optimization of the electrolyte component would also lead to increased device efficiency. These procedure and novel synthesized materials could be alternative for development of low cost DSSCs module.
