Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a photo-anode of a dye-sensitized solar cell. An ordered mesoporous titanium dioxide thin film of a nanometer porous structure is adopted as the photo-anode of the dye-sensitized solar cell. The method comprises the steps of preparing butyl titanate, hydrochloric acid and anhydrous ethanol solution, enabling solution to become colloidal sol, conducting aging treatment, drawing the film, annealing, and preparing the dye-sensitized solar cell. The mesoporous titanium dioxide thin film obtained through the method is provided with even and ordered pore passages, has a high specific surface area and relatively good heat stability, can greatly improve the adsorption rate of dye sensitizer molecules and avoid the agglomeration of the dye sensitizer molecules, and enables the dye sensitizer molecules to show good optical activity. When a substrate covered by the thin film is used as the photo-anode of the dye-sensitized solar cell, the photo-anode can be improved in absorbing sunlight, and the transmission rate of electrons and photoelectric conversion efficiency can be improved, so that the performance of the battery can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a photoanode of a dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique [0002] With the massive consumption and use of traditional energy (coal, oil, natural gas and other mineral resources), the exploration of renewable energy has become the focus of attention of countries all over the world. Among the renewable energy currently being developed, solar energy, as an inexhaustible, inexhaustible, safe, reliable, non-polluting, and unrestricted by geographical environment, is receiving more and more attention. If human beings can effectively use solar energy, it will not only solve the energy consumption problem required for human survival and development, but also solve the ecological environmental protection problem required for human survival and development. The development of solar cells is one of the most effective ways to make full use of...
