Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for rapid and uniform sensitization of a photo anode of a dye-sensitized solar cell. The method and the device are applicable to absorption of dye sensitizers of different solvents for the photo anode. A photo anode which needs to absorb a dye sensitizer is immersed in a dye solution and through flowing of the dye solution and methods such as heating, pressurizing and ultrasonic processing of the dye solution and the like, rapid and uniform absorption of the dye sensitizer in a photo-anode nano porous membrane is realized. The method and the device for the rapid and uniform sensitization of the photo anode of the dye-sensitized solar cell are capable of solving a problem that the absorption time of the photo-anode dye sensitizer is long; the dye solution is identical in concentration so that uniformity of performance of the dye-sensitized solar cell is ensured; and the method and the device facilitate large-scale production of the dye-sensitized solar cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for quickly and uniformly adsorbing a dye sensitizer on a photoanode of a dye-sensitized solar cell, in particular to a special dye soaking machine for rapidly and uniformly adsorbing a dye sensitizer on a photoanode of a dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique [0002] Dye-sensitized solar cells have made outstanding progress since 1991, and immediately received widespread international attention and attention. Dye-sensitized solar cells are mainly composed of nano-semiconductor films, dye photosensitizers, electrolytes and counter electrodes. Since the dye sensitizer needs to be adsorbed on the nano-semiconductor film to form a photoanode to absorb sunlight, its rapid and uniform adsorption on the nano-semiconductor film is an important issue. In general, the adsorption of the photoanode dye sensitizer in dye-sensitized solar cells takes more than ten hours and the adsorption on the nano-semiconductor film i...
