摘要

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) are based on the absorption of photons by dye, and the transfer ofthese to TiO2 electrodes. The microstructure and defects of TiO2 electrodes are vital for the fabricationof high efficiency dye-sensitized solar cells. These properties strongly relate to the TiO2 electrodemethod of fabrication and its parameters. In this research, the effect of drying and thickness of thenanocrystallineTiO2 electrodes were investigated. Nanocrystalline TiO2 thin films of differentthicknesses were deposited on FTO-coated glass substrates using a tape casting method. Then, theseelectrodes were dried at different temperatures (130C and 70C) at different heating rate.Subsequently, the electrodes were immersed into a dye solution. After dyeing, the cells were assembledusing the dye-covered TiO2 electrodes and platinum-coated FTO and iodine electrolytes. Thesesamples were characterized by SEM, TGA, FTIR, OM and the cell performance then measured by a-2 solar light simulator at an intensity of 1000 W.m . Drying the electrodes at different temperature anddifferent heating rate showed that the solar cells with a TiO2 electrode dried at 130C, and at lowerheating rate gave a higher short-circuit current density and open circuit voltage, with a higher overallconversion efficiency of 5.1%. The effect of the thickness of TiO2 films on the parameters of DSSCswas also investigated. Results showed that by increasing the thickness of the TiO2 films, absorption ofthe N719 dye through the TiO2 layers increased to a more optimum level, so that power conversionefficiency () of 7.51 % was obtained.
