Abstract

Power production with zero green house gas emission is economically and environmentally desirable. Direct photovoltaic conversion of sunlight into electricity is therefore a highly attractive to unsustainable energy sources such as fossil fuels. The development of dye-sensitized solar cells, which have derived inspiration from photosynthesis, has opened up exciting new possibilities and paradigms for producing solar photovoltaic possibly at lower cost. The DSSCs can be considered to be electrochemical devices consisting of a photoanode, counter electrode, electrolyte & dye.
