“…The cascade type of TiO 2 /CdS/CdSe arrangement boosts higher efficiency over [36] which clearly indicating the existence of promising results in this area. Other than cadmium chalcogenides, compounds such as PbS and Bi 2 S 3 have also found as suitable for improving the efficiency through co-sensitization process [20]. Besides, co-sensitization of Ag 2 S (3 SILAR cycles) and Bi 2 S 3 (3 SILAR cycles) nanoparticles with TiO 2 nanotubes produced high photocurrent which clearly shows that optimum level of deposition cycle is required to achieve high photocurrent and beyond that, decrease in photocurrent is observed [246].…”

Novel materials for third generation solar cells have emerged as one of the major scientific contribution in alternative energy approaches. In this scenario, semiconductor nanomaterials and organic dye molecules have greatly acknowledged for their vast contribution to the solar energy applications. Research on semiconductor nanomaterials for fabricating future generation solar cells is still fascinating due to their extraordinary structural and optical properties. Moreover, functionalization of organic dye molecules helps to harvest large amount of photons in order to apply them for high efficiency solar cell devices. Various attempts have been made to improve efficiency of quantum dot-sensitized solar cells and dye-sensitized solar cells using semiconductor inorganic nanomaterials and organic/organometallic dye molecules. Out of these, co-sensitization has been looking as most promising approach to improve the efficiency considerably. A record of over 14% of efficiency has been achieved in recent years through co-sensitization strategy. The energy transfer process during co-sensitization is also a very crucial and interesting. This review deals about materials, methods, various approaches and role of co-sensitization in enhancing the efficiency of dye-sensitized and quantum dot sensitized solar cells. The critical issues existing in the co-sensitization approach are also elaborately discussed.

“…Semiconducting PbS nanoparticles are solution-processable and suitable material for solar cells due to their flexible optical and electrical properties [6][7][8][9]. PbS nanoparticles are used in photovoltaics for their properties like tunable band gap depending on particle size, large annihilation coefficient, and multiple exciton generation (MEG) with singlephoton absorption [10][11][12][13]. It is the most vital challenge to fabricate simple low-cost photovoltaic devices with high efficiency.…”

Natural dye-sensitized solar cells were fabricated based on differently shaped Lead Sulfide nanoparticles in a simple cost-effective way. The grown PbS nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, XRD, Optical Absorption, and Photoluminescence study. The natural dye-sensitized solar cell was fabricated using a kind of dye from Clitoria ternatea as a sensitizer. The current-voltage data of the dye-sensitized solar cell was taken under dark and light illuminated conditions. The dye-sensitized solar cell efficiency was measured and the ideality factor, fill factor were also found out. The open-circuit voltage and short circuit current density of the dye-sensitized solar devices based on three different shaped PbS nanoparticles are also obtained and compared.
