Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of dye-sensitized solar cells, and relates to a surface modification material for a dye-sensitized photoanode in a dye-sensitized solar cell. Background technique

[0002] The photoanode is the core component of dye-sensitized solar cells. Its main function is to use a huge surface area to adsorb monolayer dyes, and it is also a carrier for charge separation and transport. The semiconductor thin film materials used in DSSC mainly include TiO 2 , ZnO, SnO 2 , Nb 2 o 5 , SrTiO 3 , Zn 2 SnO 4 etc. So far, the most excellent performance is still nano-TiO 2 semiconductor. However, the huge surface area of ​​semiconductor electrodes also increases the probability of charge recombination on the electrode surface, thereby reducing the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells. In order to improve the photovoltaic performance of the battery and reduce electron recombination, it is necessary to optimize the Ti...
