Problems solved by technology

For example: Porous TiO2 does not completely cover SnO doped with fluorine 2 (SnO 2 F) The surface of conductive glass (FTO for short) will lead to back transport reaction, and the electrolyte is easy to directly contact with the conductive glass; at the same time, the bridging effect between the particles inside the porous electrode is not obvious, and the electrode after heat treatment, due to the ablation of organic matter , many large gaps are left inside, which reduces the bridging effect between particles, which will prolong the electron transmission path, reduce the electron transmission efficiency, increase the electron transmission resistance inside the porous electrode, and also increase the recombination probability of electrons

Abstract

The invention discloses a solar cell photo-anode based on a three-dimensional TiO2 nano mesh material, and a preparation method of the solar cell photo-anode, and belongs to the field of dye-sensitized solar cells. The solar cell photo-anode consists of a coating 1 and a coating 2 on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) conductive glass, wherein the coating 1 is titanium dioxide of which the thickness is 4 to 8 mm; the coating 2 is a mixture of the titanium dioxide and the three-dimensional TiO2 nano mesh material; the thickness of the mixture is 4 to 8 mm, and the mass ratio of the titanium dioxide to the three-dimensional TiO2 nano mesh material is 1:1; and the coating 2 is positioned on the coating 1. By adoption of a photo-anode thin film structure, the parallel resistance of a cell can be effectively improved, and series resistance is reduced, so the probability of electron recombination is reduced, the transmission efficiency of electrons is improved, and the capture absorption capacity of sunlight in a dye adsorption state can be improved. On the basis of the two characteristics of the photo-anode thin film structure, the photo current density and photoelectric conversion efficiency of the dye-sensitized solar cell are greatly improved.
