Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing porous spherical titanium dioxide paste, the method for using the porous spherical titanium dioxide paste as a dye-sensitized solar cell photo-anode and a cell prepared from the dye-sensitized solar cell photo-anode. The porous spherical titanium dioxide paste is used for the dye-sensitized solar cell photo-anode. The porous spherical titanium dioxide paste is used as the dye-sensitized solar cell photo-anode, and the characteristics of large particle sizes and surface porousness of the porous spherical titanium dioxide paste are fully utilized so as to improve the secondary absorption of light, ensure the relatively higher light trapping efficiency of the photo-anode, increase a sensitive dye absorption amount, enhance the productivity and transportation capacity of photon-generated carriers, reduce the compounding process of the photon-generated carriers and further improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the dye-sensitized solar cell. In the methods, raw materials are readily available, and simple operations and low energy consumption are ensured; and the product has a stable structure and a large specific surface area, and is easy to store and suitable for highly-efficient dye-sensitized cell preparation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dye-sensitized solar cells, in particular to a method for preparing porous spherical titanium dioxide slurry, which is specially used for preparing photoanodes of dye-sensitized solar cells. Background technique [0002] Solar energy conversion is the most active field of new energy development and utilization. Solar cells currently on the market are mainly monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon. However, the manufacturing cost of these two solar cells is too high, which is not conducive to widespread application. The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC), which appeared in the 1990s, is a solar cell developed based on the principle of plant chlorophyll photosynthesis. It has attracted widespread attention because of its potential high efficiency and low cost. A DSC is a type of solar cell using a wide bandgap semiconductor material. The wide bandgap semiconductor itself has high thermodynamic s...
