Study on Fruit Based Dye Sensitized Solar Cell | Chapter 9 | Recent Trends in Chemical and Material Sciences Vol. 4

 In the field of solar energy conversion, finding a cost-effective and environmentally acceptable solar cell is always a scientific problem. As a result, Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs), which offer low-cost production and attractive features, are gaining traction in the industry. Nanocrystalline mesoporous oxide film, dye sensitizer, electrolyte, redox couple, counter electrode, and conductive substrate make up dye sensitised solar cells. The dye sensitizer faces several key hurdles, including high production and material costs, a complicated and costly synthetic process, and an easy degradation problem for inorganic dye sensitizers. As a result, the alternative dye in DSSCs will be a dye with a large supply and low cost. Natural dyes appear to be a viable alternative dye since they are inexpensive, easy to obtain, have a large supply of raw materials, are non-toxic, and biodegrade completely. The performance of the fruit-based dye-sensitized solar cell over the years is reviewed in this article.
