Effect of the grain size of nanoparticle dye‐coated titanium dioxide on the short‐circuit current density and open‐circuit voltage of an indium tin oxide/titanium dioxide/poly(acrylonitrile)–propylene carbonate–lithium perchlorate/graphite solar cell
Abstract:A dye-sensitized indium tin oxide (ITO)/titanium dioxide (TiO 2 )/polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-propylene carbonate (PC)-lithium perchlorate (LiClO 4 )/graphite solar cell was fabricated, and its performance was tested in the dark and under the illumination of a 100 mW/cm 2 light. Three TiO 2 samples were used in the device, namely, uncoated TiO 2 , a TiO 2 film coated with methyl red dye, and a TiO 2 film coated with coumarin dye. The films were deposited onto an ITO-covered glass substrate by a controlled hydrolys… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
