Abstract:
Dye sensitized solar cells are a type of thin film solar cell
used to convert sunlight into electrical energy. The simplicity
of design and small environmental impact of these devices make
them a likely candidate for replacing conventional PV devices.
A wide variety of fabrication techniques and device designs exist
for DSSCs. It is the purpose of this paper to evaluate some of
these design variations, including different semiconductors, as
well as semiconductor surface treatment.
