“…Nevertheless, in situ laser sintering has been shown to boost efficiency in FDSCs by as much as 80%. 122,123 Kim et al 124 reported a method to transfer a TiO 2 lm from glass (where it had been previously sintered) to a plastic substrate via laser detachment. The lm was subsequently subjected to high pressures to improve adhesion and a PCE of 5.7% was obtained for a plastic FDSC.…”

Flexible Dye Solar Cells (FDSCs), in their most widespread architecture, are assembled with two opposing planar films or foil substrates in metal–plastic or plastic–plastic combinations. The use of one metal electrode enables the convenient utilization of materials and high temperature processes but is accompanied by issues including partial opacity of the electrolyte and catalyst layer. Constraints on the stability of plastic substrates have led to the development of a variety of alternative material formulations and processes to guarantee performance even at low temperatures compatible with plastic films. Recently, efforts in doing without transparent conducting oxides have led to the development of new unconventional architectures. Review of the operation of DSCs shows that initial target markets are represented by indoor applications where power output densities have been shown to outperform competing flexible photovoltaic technologies. Whereas performance, stability in particular, needs to be significantly improved for the adoption in long term outdoor installations, commercial products integrating FDCSs for indoor or portable use have already been launched. Issues pertaining progress in materials, processes, devices and industrialization of FDSCs will be analyzed and discussed in this review

“…For examples, replacing the rigid FTO glass with a lightweight and thin polymer substrate, such as PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) coated with indium-doped tin oxide (ITO), or metal substrate, such as Ti foil, is considered to be an effective way to prepare flexible DSSCs [10][11][12][13][14]. However, the ITO/PEN substrate cannot bear a higher sintering temperature by which the connection between the nanoparticles on the substrate can be improved effectively [15].…”

Sol-gel precursor has been prepared by using zinc acetate (ZnAC) as starting material dissolved in isopropanol (IPA), diethanolamine (DEA) and distilled water (H2O) were added to produce a homogeneous and stable solution. The sol-gel precursor was deposited on ITO/PET substrate by spin-coat route. Oxidation process was held in deionized water at 90 °C for a specific time. The (100) and (101) ZnO planes were formed as the preferred orientation. RMS values of ZnO samples found to be 280 nm, 272 nm and 241 nm for 8 h, 12 h and 16 h, respectively by hot water treatment (HWT). ZnO nanorods-hourglass-like, nanosheet-leafs-like and nanorods-oval-like were obtained with different HWT time.
