Abstract:
The internal impedances of different dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) models were analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectrometer (EIS) with an equivalent circuit model. The Nyquist plot was built to simulate the redox reaction of internal device at the heterojunction. It was useful to analyze the component structure and promote photovoltaic conversion efficiency of DSSC. The impedance of DSSC was investigated and the externally connected module assembly was constructed utilizing single cells on the scaled-up module. According to the experiment results, the impedance was increased with increasing cells connected in series. On the contrary, the impedance was decreased with increasing cells connected in parallel.

Abstract:
The dye – sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is an attractive and promising device for solar cell applications that have been intensively investigated worldwide. DSSC consists of a namo TiO2 film of the photo electrode, dye molecules absorbed on the surface of TiO2 film, an electrolyte layer and a Pt counter electrode. Among these, the nanoporous TiO2 film plays an important role because it can adsorb a large amount of dye molecules which provide electrons. Therefore, the TiO2 film affects the cell performance. In this paper, the characteristics of DSSCs with different TiO2 film thicknesses were studied by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). The impedance component attributed to TiO2|electrolyte interface indicated that the small semicircle and low characteristic frequency was essential for high performance DSSC. An optimum overall conversion efficiency( %) of 5.54% was obtained in the DSSC assembled with the TiO2 film thickness of 8.86μm.

Abstract:
A very good performance under low/diffused light intensities is one of the application areas in which dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) can be utilized effectively compared to their inorganic silicon solar cell counterparts. In this article, we have investigated the 1 SUN and low intensity fluorescent light performance of Titanium (Ti)-coil based cylindrical DSSC (C-DSSC) using ruthenium based N719 dye and organic dyes such as D205 and Y123. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic results were analyzed for variable solar cell performances. Reflecting mirror with parabolic geometry as concentrator was also utilized to tap diffused light for indoor applications. Fluorescent light at relatively lower illumination intensities (0.2 mW/cm2 to 0.5 mW/cm2) were used for the investigation of TCO-less C-DSSC performance with and without reflector geometry. Furthermore, the DSSC performances were analyzed and compared with the commercially available amorphous silicon based solar cell for indoor applications.

Abstract:
A TiO2 strip array with a thickness of 90 nm was fabricated by photolithography and physical vapor deposition. This work utilized the chemical and physical methods to fabricate the TiO2 strip array. A porous semiconductor layer made of TiO2 nanoparticles was coated on the TiO2 strip array. The TiO2 strip array has a one-dimensional protrusive structure. The energy conversion efficiency (4.38%) of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) with the TiO2 strip array exceeded that (3.20%) of a DSSC without a TiO2 strip array by 37%. In addition, this result was verified by the electrochemical impedance spectra of the two DSSCs. Therefore, the TiO2 strip array can be used to increase the energy conversion efficiencies of DSSCs. The large energy conversion efficiency of the DSSC with the TiO2 strip array arises from the large surface area of the one-dimensional protrusive structure and its specific electron transport paths. The DSSC with the TiO2 strip array has advantages of economical production cost, easy fabrication, and boosting energy conversion efficiency.

AbstractWe have developed new flexible dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) comprising organic dye (JH-1), cobalt redox electrolyte and hierarchically structured TiO2 (HS-TiO2) photoelectrode prepared using an electrostatic spray method. The performance of JH-1 sensitized flexible DSSC with a cobalt redox electrolyte was compared with those of N719-based DSSC and DSSC with I-/ I3- redox electrolyte. As a result, JH-1 sensitized flexible DSSC with [Co(Ⅲ/Ⅱ)(bpy-pz)3](PF6)3/2 redox system exhibited a high photocurrent density of 9.17 mA cm-2, an open circuit voltage of 0.953 V, a fill factor of 0.70, and a power conversion efficiency of 6.12% under 1 sun illumination (100 mW cm-2). The incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency was measured to explain the photocurrent generation difference by different dyes and electrolytes. The electron recombination lifetime of cells was measured by intensity-modulated photovoltage spectroscopy. Mass transport in DSSCs employing cobalt redox electrolytes was also investigated by the photocurrent transient measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis.

Y 1.86 Eu 0.14 WO 6 phosphors were prepared using a solid-state reaction method. Their optical properties were analysed, and they was mixed with TiO 2 , sintered, and used as a photoelectrode (PE) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The as-prepared photoelectrode was characterized by photoluminescence spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and X-ray diffraction. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the DSSC with TiO 2 :Y 1.86 Eu 0.14 WO 6 (100:2.5) was 25.8% higher than that of a DSCC using pure TiO 2 as PE. This high efficiency is due to the ability of the luminescent material to convert ultraviolet radiation from the sun to visible radiation, thus improving the solar light harvesting of the DSSC.

Deposition of Nb2O5 layer on ZnO film improves power conversion efficiency of DSSCs. The ZnO/Nb2O5photoanode-based DSSCs show increase in photocurrent, open circuit voltage and conversion efficiency. The ZnO/Nb2O5 solar cell provides 50 mV increase of open circuit voltage, [Formula: see text] increment in current density and [Formula: see text] increment in efficiency as compare to ZnO-based DSSCs. We further analyzed the electron recombination properties of ZnO and ZnO/Nb2O5 by utilizing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The EIS analysis (Bode Plot) for ZnO/Nb2O5 photoanode show shifting of the peak related to electron recombination towards low frequency as compared to ZnO photoanode. Thus, there is an increase in lifetime of electrons in the ZnO/Nb2O5 photoanode, confirming that the recombination reactions are reduced in ZnO/Nb2O5 photoanode as compared to the ZnO.

An efficient triphenylmethylphosphonium iodide-based liquid electrolyte was synthesized and used for the first time as an electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). With the as-synthesized electrolyte, the DSSC yielded an overall light to electricity conversion efficiency of 5.34 % to 7.10 %, when the radiant power was tuned from 100 mW cm-2 to 10 mW cm-2. This may be attributed to the limitation of mass transport in the DSSC. The electronic and ionic processes in the DSSC were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and linear voltammography, respectively.

Abstract:
Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is considered as the next generation low cost photovoltaic device, and one of the important components is the counter electrode which reduces the I3- ions generated after electron injection from iodide into the oxidized sensitizer. In this work composite material of carbon black and LaCoO3 synthesized by sol-gel method has been investigated to replace the platinized counter electrode for quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells. From cyclic voltammogram, it was found that carbon black catalyzed with LaCoO3 exhibited increased reduction current compared with that of carbon black without LaCoO3. This was consistent with increased surface roughness depicted from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of DSSCs using carbon black-LaCoO3 composite as counter electrode revealed lower charge-transfer resistance (Rct) than that using carbon black. The highest conversion efficiency of 5.40% was obtained from DSSC (active area 1 cm2) fabricated with quasi-solid composite polymer electrolyte using carbon black-LaCoO3 (95:5 ratio by weight) compared to 5.23% obtained from DSSC equipped with platinum counter electrode. The performances of the quasi-solid-state DSSCs sensitized with N719 and natural dyes were examined and it was concluded that the carbon black-LaCoO3 composite was compatible with platinum coated counter electrode for DSSCs.

Abstract:
This work investigates the correlation of structural and photovoltaic properties of dyes used in dye-sensitized solar cells. Experimental methods, including ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are employed to study optical and electrochemical properties of dye molecules. Computational methods, including density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory, are used to validate and predict the optical and electronic properties of dye molecules, in their isolated state and once embedded into a working electrode device environment that comprises a dye...TiO2 interface. The results chapters begin with the presentation of a series of quinodimethene dyes that are experimentally validated for their photovoltaic application, and associated computational studies reveal that an inner structural factor - a phenyl ring rotation occurring during the optical excitation process - leads to the competitive photovoltaic device performance of these dyes. Carbazole-based dyes are then systematically studied by computation, especially considering charge transfer paths and binding modes of these dyes on a titania surface. The theoretical models for the basic building block of this chemical family of dyes, known as MK-44, successfully support and explain structural discoveries from X-ray diffraction and reflectometry that impact of their function. A benzothiadiazole-based dye, RK-1, is then systematically studied by both experimental and computational methods, and the results show that the π-bridge composed of thiophene, benzothiadiazole and benzene rings leads to excellent charge separation; and the rotation of these rings during the optical excitation process may well be consistent with the fluorescence spectrum. Finally, the well-known ruthenium-based dyes are theoretically studied to determine the properties of different ligands connected to the metal core of the complex. Conformations with different NCS ligands are calculated in terms of energy and explain well the corresponding results from X-ray diffraction. Acid-base properties of carboxyl groups connected to pyridine ligands in N3 and N749 are theoretically calculated based on thermodynamics and density functional theory. Implicit and explicit models are both adopted to predict these acid dissociative constant values, which are generally in a good agreement with the reported experimental data. The thesis concludes with conclusions and a future outlook.

Abstract:
This project employs the biological compounds hemin, melanin, and retinoic acid as photoactive dyes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). These dyes are environmentally and economically superior to the standard ruthenium-based dyes currently used in DSSCs because they are nontoxic and widely available. Characterization by linear sweep voltammetry yielded averaged maximum overall conversion efficiency values of 0.059% for retinoic acid, 0.023% for melanin, and 0.015% for hemin. Absorption spectra of hemin and retinoic acid suggest that they would complement each other well when used in tandem in one cell because hemin has a secondary maximum absorption peak at 613nm and retinoic acid has maximum absorption at 352nm. Cells made with hemin or melanin performed better with the use of lower temperatures to seal the cells, and hemin cells performed exceptionally well with exclusion of the sealing procedure. These biologically-derived cells have the potential to advance the development of inexpensive and safer solar energy sources, which promise to serve as clean energy sources in the near future.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to modify the platinum particle size to observe the effects on the efficiency of a Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSCC). DSSC was prepared as follows: On the anode side, TiO2 was annealed on the transparent conducting oxide (TCO) which is SnO2:F coated and a cis-bis (isothiocyanato) bis (2,2'
-bipyridyl-4,4'
-dicarboxylato)&ndash
ruthenium(II) dye was adsorbed on the TiO2. On the cathode side, platinum was coated on TCO from an alcohol based solution of platinum (plasitol) by thermal decomposition method. Potassium iodide and iodine were dissolved in ethylene glycol to prepare the electrolyte. Four cathode surfaces were prepared by thermal decomposition method at 400 oC and 5 min. Cathode surface morphology was changed by changing the annealing conditions. Current-voltage measurements were performed for determining the cell efficiency. One cathode glass was used as such giving a cell efficiency of 2.36%. Three glasses were further thermally treated at 450 oC, 500 oC and 550 oC for 30 min. highest efficiency was measured with the counter electrode annealed at 550 oC for 30 min as 2.89%. SEM micrographs of the substrate which was SnO2:F coated TCO revealed a decrease in average surface particle size with an increase in annealing temperature. EDX mappings showed that as the annealing temperature increased, Pt particles segregated together to form porous patches. In this study, it was demonstrated that as the annealing temperature of cathode increased, DSSC efficiency increased. These results can be used to design cheaper DSSCs with higher efficiencies.

Abstract:
Mesoporous semiconductors such as TiO2 nanoparticles, as well as transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) such as indium tin oxide films are typically employed for setting up the photo-electrode module in variety of photoelectrochemical cells including Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs). In order to exhibit a high performance efficiency, the photo-electrodes in such applications are required to be able to harvest the light and transport the generated electrons effectively. Accordingly mesoporous layers with high values of surface area and well-established pore structure along with highly transparent and conductive TCOs are deposited on suitable substrates through the physical or chemical vapor deposition methods. The processing facilities and materials required to fabricate such high-quality devices with high values of efficiency are complicated and expensive, whereas devices of lower quality do not fulfill the demands. This issue is of particular importance regarding the energy production and developing the solar cell technologies, as it is considered by the concept of “cost per watt”. Thus, a great deal of effort is being carried out globally to enhance the efficiency of affordably-produced solar cells such as low-cost DSSCs. Utilizing the wet chemical techniques such as sol-gel method which provide a considerably more affordable route to synthesize nanoparticles and deposit thin films without the need of applying high temperature or vacuum condition is a widely-used approach to decrease the processing expenses. However, to achieve an acceptable cost-per-watt ratio requires enhancing the obtained efficiency value as well, and therefore, modifying the processing procedures to improve the required features of the products are highly encouraged. This thesis focuses on two individual activities: synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles, and also thin film deposition of a promising TCO called aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO); both obtained through the sol-gel route that is modified to contribute to nanostructures with suitable features for application in photoelectrochemical devices such as DSSC. In the first part, mesoporous anatase nanoparticles were synthesized through the surfactant-mediated sol–gel route. Through changing the refluxing time and water-to-surfactant molar ratio, as-prepared nanocrystals of high density and large and narrowly-distributed pore sizes were obtained, displaying surface area values up to 240 m2·g-1, much higher than the reported values for commercial TiO2-based catalysts. In the second part, sol–gel dip–coating of ZnO thin films doped with 2 at.% of aluminium ions was carried out. By altering the hydrolysis reaction and changing the thermal treatment procedure, thin films of highly c-axis preferred orientation were obtained with optical transmittance of around 80% and resistivity values down to 6 – 15 mΩ·cm, corresponding to sheet resistance of around Rsh ~ 500 Ω/sq. The obtained conductivity values, even though one order magnitude lower than those reported for the AZO thin film prepared via expensive techniques, are in the suitable range to improve the cost per watt ratio in applications such as inkjet printing of low-cost printed electronics and more affordable DSSC devices.

Abstract:
In this era the requirement for energy is enhancing, therefore, many energy resources are developed among them the emerging third-generation dye-sensitized solar cell is one of the environment-friendly solar cell-based technology. Generally, dye-sensitized solar cells consist of a nanomaterial-based photoanode, dye molecules as an absorber, electrolyte, and counter electrode. In the case of indoor application, this solar cell works easily so this is the characteristics of a dye-sensitized solar cell. Moreover, the outdoor performance of DSSC degrades on exposure to sunlight. Exposure to sunlight increases the temperature of the internal component of DSSC and consequently degradation in device performance. Long-term stability is obtained by the choice of such material where degradation takes place slowly and plastic covers are also coated over DSSC to prevent degradation. The solar response of DSSC towards dye was also mentioned, the higher the percentage of EQE higher the efficiency of the device. In this chapter, the authors discuss the introduction of a solar cell, the working principle of DSSC, and the available research background for outdoor performance and long-term stability with a solar response of device i.e. EQE or IPCE.

Abstract:
Over the years, researchers have been working on replacing sensitized dye for dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC), because of its low production cost, biodegradability, and non-toxicity. However, the overall performance of natural dye-based DSSCs is low compared to the DSSCs sensitized with Ruthenium based dyes. The combination of natural dyes with an optimized choice of the extracting solvents and the proper volume ratio of mixture of the dyes, enhances inherent properties, such as absorption and adsorption of the dyes. It also allows the device to utilize photon energy more efficiently over the entire visible wavelength. As a result, DSSC sensitized with the dye mixture shows higher absorbance, and cumulative absorption properties over the whole visible region than the DSSC fabricated with individual dyes and showed higher photocurrent. Another effective way to improve cell efficiency is by using a blocking layer. The blocking layer increases the photocurrent, is mainly due to the improvement of the electron recombination at the transparent conducting oxide/electrolyte interfaces. Also, the blocking layer’s compact structure creates an effective pathway for electron transportation; thus, the device’s photocurrent increases. Additionally, a slight improvement in the open-circuit voltage and fill factor was observed, thus cell efficiency enhances significantly. By both the proper ratio of dye mixture and the blocking layer improves cell performance of DSSC and opens a new pathway for future studies.

Abstract:
There has been incredible progress so far in graphene (Gr)-based solar cells and this is going to continue well into the future. Therefore, it is important to get an idea of the recent progress of graphene-based solar cells in the last decades. In this chapter, a brief overview of the recent research on Gr in solar cell applications has been outlined. It is prominent that Gr has been used in heterojunction solar cells, GaAs solar cells, Dye-sensitized Solar cells (DSSC), Perovskite solar cells, Polymer solar cells, and organic solar cells. In these solar cells, Gr has been utilized either as an absorber layer, hole transport layer, or electron transport layer. However, Gr has been used in the form of thin film, flakes, or quantum dot form. About 25% output efficiency has been observed in Gr-based solar cells so far. This chapter gives an overview of the Gr-based solar cell with efficiencies to further continue the research on Gr-based solar cells to achieve higher efficiency.

This chapter has been mainly focused on the development and fabrication of various nanostructured materials for electrochemical energy conversion, specially, third generation (3rd) thin film photovoltaic system such as organic dye or perovskite -sensitized Solar Cells. Enormous efforts have been dedicated to the development of a variety of clean energy, capable of harvesting energy of various forms. Among the various energy forms, electrochemical devices that produce electric energy from chemical energy have received the most attention as the most promising power sources. In the majority of cases, researchers who come from the different background could engage on certain aspects of the components to improve the photovoltaic performances from different disciplines: (i) chemists to design and synthesize suitable donor–acceptor dyes and study structure–property relationships; (ii) physicists to build solar cell devices with the novel materials, to characterize and optimize their performances, and to understand the fundamental photophysical processes; and (iii) engineers to develop new device architectures. The synergy between all the disciplines will play a major role for future advancements in this area. However, the simultaneous development of all components such as photosensitizers, hole transport layer, photoanodes and cost effective cathode, combined with further investigation of transport dynamics, will lead to Photovoltaic cells, 30%.

Abstract:
Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC) is a relatively new form of solar panels which use a photo reactive dye and electrolytic cell to capture sunlight and turn it into electricity. The efficiency of DSSCs is about 10% but they are much less expensive to produce than silicon solar cells. The carbon dioxide release from DSSC manufacture is much less than a silicon solar cell, so DSSCs pay back their greenhouse gas emissions rapidly, while many silicon panels may never pay back the pollution they require to manufacture. Because of greater efficiency, silicon solar cells still produce power more cheaply than DSSC. Slight improvements to efficiency or reduction in cost would make these solar panels a more cost effective solution for photovoltaic power. A standard DSSC was built and compared to a modified version using a graphite layer instead of platinum. Surprisingly, the graphite panel outperformed the platinum panel. This is thought to be a result of inexperienced manufacturing. Recommendations for improvements for the experiment are outlined.

Abstract:
Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), a new type of photo-electrochemical solar cells, are a promising alternative to the silicon based photovoltaic because they hold advantages of low cost, simple manufacturing processes and higher conversion efficiency compared with other types of excitonic solar cell. DSSCs with conversion efficiencies of up to 11% have been achieved with a highly stable electrolyte under AM1.5G conditions. Recently, one dimensional (1D) electrospun TiO2 nanofibers have been used as the DSSC photoanode to improve the electron transport efficiency and enhance the light harvest efficiency by scattering more light in the red part of the solar spectrum. In this paper, stepped light induced transient measurement of photocurrent and voltage (SLIM-PCV) has been employed to study electron transport and recombination in DSSCs. Electron diffusion coefficients and electron lifetimes were measured with differing light intensities. The electron diffusion coefficients and electron lifetimes strong correlate with intensity, which indicates the trap limited diffusion process for electrons in the TiO2 nanofiber DSSC.
