Recent Advancement on Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC)

Abstract

Irrespective of the photo incident angle and lighting condition of a day, DSSC is a kind of photovoltaic device consistent to generate power. Power extracted in diffuse light condition from DSSC is greater than the generated power from a conventional existing photovoltaic cell. This lucrative feature drives many to improve the device performance. To fill the gap between theoretical and practical performance of the device, more study is required on this topic. This study reviews the various methods to prepare DSS cell in each step, working principle, different measuring systems for characterization of the cell, and how those characters affect the final product to achieve its goal.
