“…Photoconversion efficiency for DSSCs sensitized with red and yellow colouring pigments were 0.416% and 0.921%, respectively (Abdullah et al, 2022). In the combination of dyes (a) sappan wood/E and turmeric/M with neutral pH, the values of Isc, Voc, and FF are 1.7 x 10 -3 mA/cm 2 , respectively; 382 mV; 3.22%; and an efficiency was 2.09%.…”

Dyes are significant components in Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) performance because they act as photosensitizers. Natural dye-based DSSC system fabrication innovations continue to be produced in an effort to improve DSSC performance efficiency. In this study, a DSSC system was developed using double components of natural dyes as natural photosensitizers to enhance DSSC efficiency. This method of making natural dye-based DSSC uses a combination of dye extracts from two different dye sources that have the potential as natural photosensitizers in DSSC. The research aims to investigate the impact of the combined use of two natural dyes and pH variations on DSSC performance. DSSC performance measurements encompass the short-circuit current (Isc), open-circuit voltage (Voc), and DSSC efficiency parameters. The obtained results indicate efficiency values for dyes (a) sappan wood/ethanol and turmeric/methanol; (b) turmeric/methanol and beetroot/ethanol; and (c) beetroot/ethanol and turmeric/distilled water. At neutral pH, the efficiency values are 2.09%, 2.10%, and 2.19%, respectively. Meanwhile, at acidic pH of 2.59%; 2.39%; and 2.71%. Notably, the dye efficiency values at acidic pH surpass those found at neutral pH conditions. The highest efficiency is observed in the combination of dye (c) beetroot/ethanol and turmeric/distilled water with efficiency reaching 2.71% at acidic pH.

“…Several studies on anthocyanin dyes demonstrate absorption peaks within the range of 400 to 600 nm as shown in Figure 3, showcasing their suitability for light absorption in DSSCs. Distinct peaks are noted at marginally varying wavelengths, including 520, 532, or 543 nm (Abdullah et al, 2022;Chang & Lo, 2010;Noor et al, 2014;Syafinar et al, 2015;Widhiyanuriyawan et al, 2022). Various origins of anthocyanins, such as mangosteen fruit peel, blueberries, and black rice, manifest distinctive absorption peaks in the visible light spectrum.…”

This study investigates the feasibility and potential of anthocyanins as natural dyes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The focus is on the efficiency, stability, and economic viability of using anthocyanins as green alternatives in renewable energy technology. While anthocyanins offer controlled modification of optical properties at a low cost, there are challenges to overcome in achieving high efficiency, long-term stability, and commercial affordability. The study analyzes recent research developments and proposes strategies to enhance efficiency, stability, and economic viability. Optimization techniques, such as dye mixing and co-pigmentation, as well as modifications to dye structure and protective coatings, are explored. Economic considerations, availability, scalability, and innovative approaches like dye engineering and novel device architectures are discussed. The findings highlight the potential of anthocyanin-based DSSCs as a sustainable and economically viable solar energy technology. The study concludes with recommendations for future research to overcome challenges and advance the field of anthocyanin-based DSSCs.
