Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) are prominent alternative devices to conventional p-n junction silicon based solar cells because of their low fabrication cost and high power conversion efficiency, good cost/efficiency ratio. In the present work, DSSC devices were made-up with fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrate, a TiO2 compact layer was deposited on FTO, Ruthenium(II) dye (N719), an iodide - triiodide electrolyte and a platinum (Pt) counter electrode. Photo anode with thin film layers of TiO2 and Pt counter electrode (photo-cathode) were prepared. Field emission electron microscope (FESEM) was employed to investigate the surface morphology of TiO2 layers. The DSSC device efficiency was evaluated by J-V characteristics. Fabricated devices were exhibited high power conversion efficiencies. The electrochemical impedance characteristics were analyzed by fitting the experimental results to the corresponding electrical equivalent circuit simulated data.

“…Three DSSC cells were prepared using a standard procedure [21,22]. Firstly, the transparent conducting substrates (ITO and FTO respectively) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a conductive thin layer of silver (obtained using sputtering technique) were cleaned by treating them with washing powder, ethanol and isopropyl alcohol (IPA).…”

The dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) and thin-layer heterojunctional solar cells have attracted much attention as an alternative to relatively expensive silicon-based solar cells. Among the various photosensitizers used to build these cells, porphyrins have proven to be outstanding candidates due to their strong absorption in the visible region and have established basic and peripheral modification methods to adjust their geometry and electronic structures. Due to the improved spectral properties, the electronic spectra of these materials have been extensively studied. In this paper, the information obtained using both ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy have been used to evaluate the use of Pd-TPP (palladium-5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrin) as sensitizer dye on different glass substrate coated with transparent conducting oxides. The electrical characterization and quantum efficiency results, related with Pd-TPP-sensitized heterojunctional supramolecular solar cells, are also highlighted.
