A choosing process for the sampling delay in the dye sensitized solar cells I–V characterization method was established. The presented method is based on the stepwise varying bias voltage technique. The analyses were based on the solar cell transient current impact on the cell I–V acquisition. This process presents a method to correctly fix the I–V scan sampling delay concerning the cell settling time to obtain accurate dye sensitized solar cells performance measures. It allows a faster acquisition compared to classical measurement method to avoid the solar cell heating. All tests were performed on a typical TiO2 natural‐dyed solar cell, dedicated to laboratory tests. The cell manufacturing process was also discussed. Measures were operated by a laboratory developed digital acquisition board. The system architecture, as well as its operating algorithm, was presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
