Abstract

The invention belongs to the manufacturing technical field of a TiO2 nano crystalline film photoelectrode of a dye sensitization solar cell, and in particular relates to a preparation method for a metal-doped dye sensitization TiO2 nano crystalline film photoelectrode. Colloid containing metal-doped TiO2 nanocrystalline particles and TiO2 large particles with light scattering performance is coated on a conductive substrate which undergoes heat treatment to form the nano crystalline film photoelectrode with a pore structure. On one hand, the metal doping not only increases the number of carriers to improve the conductivity obviously, but also changes the position of a TiO2 energy band and consequently improves the photo voltage; and on the other hand, the introduction of the TiO2 large particles strengthens the light scattering and the dispersion of redox ions, thereby further improving the light absorption efficiency of the TiO2 nano crystalline film photoelectrode to a certain extent. The preparation method which is simple and easy for operation is particularly suitable for the industrialized production equipment of the dye sensitization TiO2 nano crystalline film photoelectrode.
