Problems solved by technology

[0007] The present invention is aimed at the poor contact between the nanocrystalline semiconductor contained in the traditional photoanode and the titanium substrate in the prior art, resulting in unfavorable transmission of photogenerated electrons, reduced electron collection efficiency, low light utilization rate and strong electron recombination. Defects such as low efficiency provide a method for preparing a titanium foil for a dye-sensitized solar cell photoanode

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a titanium foil of a dye sensitized solar cell (DSC) photo anode, comprising the following steps: cutting, grinding, cleaning and blow-drying the titanium foil; treating the cleaned and dried titanium foil with acid solution; placing the titanium foil treated with the acid solution in hydrogen peroxide solution for treatment, washing the titanium foil treated with the hydrogen peroxide solution with deionized water, and drying the washed titanium foil with clean air; placing the titanium foil sequentially treated with the acid solution and the hydrogen peroxide solution in a titanium salt solution for treatment; and sintering the titanium foil sequentially treated with the acid solution, the hydrogen peroxide solution, and the titanium salt solution at the temperature of 400 to 560 DEG C. By the method for preparing the titanium foil, not only the photo anode which has strong adhesion and good electronic transmission performance, and can effectively inhibit electronic recombination in the DSCs can be obtained; but also the light utilization rate is increased and the performance of the DSCs is improved; and furthermore, the preparation method is simple and suitable for industrial application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a method for preparing a titanium foil of a photoanode of a dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique [0002] With the development of society and the progress of human beings, it is imminent to use energy effectively and rationally. Solar energy is inexhaustible and inexhaustible, and it is an excellent renewable and pollution-free energy source. Traditional silicon solar cells cannot be popularized due to the disadvantages of complex manufacturing process, high energy consumption and high cost of high-purity silicon. [0003] In 1991, Gr?tzel and others invented the nano-film dye-sensitized solar cell (Dye-sensitized Solar Cell, DSSC). The traditional DSSC uses glass coated with an indium-tin metal oxide conductive layer as the substrate of the two electrodes, which is fragile, not portable, and expensive. Therefore, people have developed a flexible DSSC, which use...
