Preparation of TiO<sub>2</sub> Thin Film for Dye Sensitized Solar Cell Deposited by Electrophoresis Method

Abstract: TiO 2 thin film for the dye sensitized solar cell was deposited by the electrophoresis method using the super fine particle of TiO 2 (P-25) and the cell characteristics were evaluated. Thin films of high quality without cracks were obtained using only ion free water without binder and also using the constant current method compared with the constant voltage method. The quality of thin film increased with decreasing value of constant current and deposition time. The desired film thickness could be controlled by… Show more

“…When the cell is illuminated through the TCO, a photon is absorbed by the dye which transfers an electron to the conduction band (CB) of the semiconductor material. Subsequently, the electron diffuses towards the TCO while the electrolyte regenerates the oxidized dye and transports the positive charges to the counter electrode [90][91][92].…”

“…In comparison with PC techniques, EPD has the advantages of low cost, short deposition time, and high reproducibility. The binder-free feature of EPD is attractive for preparing TiO 2 films on flexible plastic substrates that cannot tolerate high-temperature calcination but can tolerate high-pressure compression. When conducting EPD, particles must be electrically charged to permit film formation in an electrical field and also for stabilization of the suspension. Previous studies have shown that a small iodine–acetone–water additive can charge TiO 2 nanoparticles in an alcohol solvent via the adsorption of generated protons. , The lower boiling points of these charging additives enable the fabrication of TiO 2 films at relatively low temperatures.…”

“…In addition, mild steel can also be used as a catalyst for photosynthesis (Rachel et al 2002). The synthesis of TiO 2 photocatalyst films was performed using various methods such as thermal oxidation of metals (Truyen et al 2006), sol-gel (Deguchi et al 2001), dipping coating (Chin et al 2010), electroporation sputtering (Su et al 2004;Kim et al 2002), metallic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) (Mahmoud et al 2013) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) (Fujimura and Yoshikado 2003;Khalifa and Mahmoud 2017;Farkas et al 2008;Suda et al 2004Suda et al , 2005Zhao et al 2008;Sato et al 2009). A good adhesion thin layer with good mechanical rigidity, substrate adhesion and high surface area can be obtained through the PLD process.…”
